New Railway Modellers Forums

Thanks guys, some great ideas here so far, and some good inspiration. Any more for any more?? The pics are great, some top class modelling here!

Ay up all, been a while since I posted but I have a question. One of my favourite areas in railway modelling is wagons, from private owner right through to nationalisation. I need some inspiration so I can do some loads for mine and some ideas. So, if anyone can put up some pics it would be great! T...

Great stuff, cheers Phil, thanks for your time and effort! Much appreciated.

Cheers for the info chaps, i'm not really all that fussed as to which classmate I transform this into, but it has the corridor tender being an older Hornby FS model. So if one of you can advise me on which loco/s were united with this type of tender i'll just choose one from those.

Well chaps thanks for your replies and useful info, it has the normal dome, so is an unmodified version. I have a few names in mind, so i'm guessing it will be one of those from the original design batch. I'm not too fussed about the left hand drive thing, as it wont really be noticeable when the lo...

I'm looking to rename and renumber a Hornby A3 into a classmate. It's an LNER version, and was wondering where the best place is that I can get the new plates, and waterslide transfers for the cabside numbers? Any ideas chaps?

Must get my backside down there soon, only a stones throw away too.....Great pics bud.

That'll do me Buffers, as long as I can use Cyano on them that'll do, thanks chap.

Hi all, would anyone know where I can obtain handwheels for the top of tank wagons?, as I have a couple here that have them missing, and I'd like to replace them. Preferably plastic....Cheers, Nick.

Ay up all, do any of you good fellows know where I can get some waterslide 'Mobil' transfers from for a Bachmann tank wagon??? I've found every other company apart from Mobil!!!! Thanks in advance....Nick.

I have one of the old Triang ones that Tornado mentioned, excellent condition, just needs buffers.

I'm packing as we speak....oh yeah, and planning a spate of bank jobs.

My one is the special edition, so I expected it to be a bit better than it is, your one looks great, I'm waiting for a reply from my supplier to hopefully get it looked at or changed altogether. Although failing that, i'll fork out for some better deflectors, sort the running gear meself and just ha...

As a couple of you have said you have purchased one of these, my one arrived in the post today and the smoke deflectors are not quite in line with the boiler, slightly toeing out at the front. When Hornby mag did their review, theirs was the same, are any of yours like that or have I got a raspberry...

I'm sure Bachmann do these, as has been said in your other thread, well the 43xx anyway......
