How about a pub

Marklin still do make both AC and DC locos. Trix are the two rail equivalent. Oddly for such a niche product, marklin prices don't seem particularly high. In contrast the Hobbytrade Di6 loco of the NSB which topped £900 at a recent auction (HO co-co)

Peco are now back making model railway stuff.

If you haven't sold your rail joiners for £12, too late now.

3500 now sold out.

You can add your name to a waiting list to replace anyone who drops out.

I'm a bit late to the party with this, so it might be old hat now, but I've done the very opposite of what I think you're asking about. My DCC layout is fed by an ESU Ecos and this powers everything that is on the track. My point controllers are LS150s and are powered on a separate bus, fed by a Len...

Having to go through your attic to cross the road is an unusual, but not totally impossible condition

Pricom (USA) make a versatile little unit that does what you want with a jack plug for a speaker. There are a couple of models, the more expensive allows you to have trigger/switched inputs, so a motion sensor on a track bed will interupt the background sound to play (for example) that there is a tr...

My Thomas layout.. the HS-II shunting layout... My loft layout... My garage layout... my big(!) layout... The layouts will constitute far more of a problem if someone is left - many, many years into the future, long life to Dad-1 - to deal with them. Perhaps first addressing what's a priority for r...

It's what makes you happy. There's nothing wrong in having a massive collection. It's common across all hobbies. Airfix modellers refer to the stash. I've been adding all my locos to the roster on my ecos, including some that haven't run in years and it gave me great pleasure seeing them spark into ...

There are a few more comments about the derailing IEP here too:

Haha. You've already been handed plenty of fine places to visit. I live in South Wales, 90 minutes from the Gower coast. The other weekend I was down there (Port Eynon) and it rained all day. I sat in the camper van, mug of tea in hand, watching the white horses crash on the beach, listening to the ...

I think it's a case of toys and 'boys toys' and what LD was trying to get over was that in the recent past, Hornby have not really understood and blurred the two.

Something I found interesting was the recent approach of bachmann. We've seen the drifting upwards of prices for some.time and the usual baseless explanations for this are trotted out. The cost of 47s 37s and 66s now have a srp of around £150. And then out comes Hattons with a all new duplication of...

See, that's the problem with criminals - they often come from seemingly perfectly good homes

Oh, he got caught plenty of times but because his crimes were what you might call "minor", he did a couple of months and was out again. What these guys wish to avoid are a-cat prisons because these are where the hard nuts and radicals live. Keep your crimes to a lower level and you'll spen...
