New Railway Modellers Forums

I managed to take a couple of phone shots of the new N7 at the club the other night. Apart from its weight - which is considerable - the French Grey livery was also impressive.

I have to say, I never complained! Maybe I should have.... My advice to anyone contemplating building a rake of Ratio 4-wheel coaches [and, indeed, their Toad brake van] is to buy the oldest productions that they can. By that I mean scour eBay for unbuilt kits in the older Sturminster Newton boxes, ...

Interesting posts, as usual, Roger.

Insufficient free play in the bogies or maybe the back-to-backs are out?

Having followed this saga for some years through RMWeb, I wouldn’t buy a washer from this guy via the internet unless I had seen evidence of multiple orders being fulfilled and despatched first. Absolutely a case of ‘caveat emptor’ if I ever saw one. Purchase only face-to-face at exhibitions. The tr...

I love seeing this little layout Geoff. Never stop posting the photos!

Tony

This is a miserable and long-standing saga, fully documented in RMWeb.

Everyone has been strongly advised only to buy face-to-face and definitely not on line from the manufacturer (and I use that term in the loosest possible sense).
