had another package this week and it was tied with white string

Yeahhhh,, the strings back!!

Great pic Dave from a great layout. I think the 70's will gradually grow on people. I imagine its a good powerful and good running model. Probably pull just about everything you could hang on it.

Fantastic layout...love it.

Cracking job there Stuart.

ha ha,,, just paid a phone bill and a gas bill that was ballistic skint mate. for now anyway.


It looks in good nick, you should have no trouble flogging it mate.

Ben, 46100 would look superb on Langley Bridge! you should give me it

I love the pic you "found" on your camera. Soo busy with lots going on, great stuff mate.

That brake van would also look good on Langley Bridge!! you should give me it

As I have said before, I love your general layout (and I am copying parts)

You know! I cant ever recall seeing any pics of your layout rocketman. You have got a layout havent you?

As dad1 says, cleanliness and as much weight as you can get in the shell. I have a wee Hornby 0-4-0 that runs quite slow. I fitted a good quality decoder, I also added some pickups to a spare wagon and hard wired them through to the decoder. Not trying to outdo dad1 here is a wee vid of my 101 http:...

My last parcel from them was a recycled Wotsits box,brown paper but no string this time

Are you sure it was from Hattons Tosh mate?.........

The latest...

Ok thanks for that Geoff. I'm sure young Ben here wont mind us high jacking his thread a little. I used Langley Models for something ages ago, cant remember what mind you. Will beetle away now and have a look. Thanks to both you Ben and you Geoff (sorry dad) sb Oh an brass look chain will be ok. Edi...

Ok, thanks Ben...I need some small chain to add to this.. (steering chain)




It looks daft without a steering chain.

Ben, Ben, Ben,,, the nice little truck with the pipe load! did you get it like that or did you get the truck then add the load yourself? If you did can I ask where did you get the chain? "he asks because he needs some exactly like that"

Hope you like your 25 as much as I like mine. It seems you do. I have to admit not being a huge diesel fan but I thought a class 20 and a 25 would look and work ok. Now all I need is for Bachmann to come up weight the derby Lightweight two car DMU That will make up my full compliment of diesels. The...

Unless its different to mine the J39 is split chassis. When you say the controller shows a short I am assuming its DCC and that the loco has a decoder installed. Did you install the decoder? or was the loco chipped when you bought it? The motor connections inside the split chassis MUST be insulated ...
