Hi Ian,
Best bet is to email Bachmann for the Class 24/25 Snow Plough accessory pack,
cost should be no more than £2.50p + S.A.E.

I have a set up here that can scan slides to computer, and then burn the images to cd/dvd if you wish.

I'll be in the Uk next week on a weeks holiday, If interested, I can do them for you after I return from the Uk.

Not a bad looking model, but that snow plough looks to be sitting too low on the model, unless there's a NEM pocket mounted on the bogie ? http://images.fotopic.net/yw7ej5.jpg 153 333 & 156 405 passing Stenson Jct heading for Derby 08-08-2003 Snow plough detail http://images.fotopic.net/yw7ej1.j...

I used to use them until I kept getting to many rejections to prefectly good photos. Some typical lame excuses to expect; "Sky too blue or too cloudy, too much sky" "Wrong colour of smoke from a steam engine !!!" ? "Image too dark" ? (that photo was made after midnight)...

There's no need to change the magnet if converting from a 3 pole armature to a 5 pole armature. The only reason why the magnet would need to be replaced is; if the original magnet is weak or has lost it's power altogether. Given the age of the Hornby Class 25's, I would guess that the magnets are we...

The complete drive unit from the HST (5 pole version) X942B/NISK/5P, will fit the Hornby Class 25 locomotive.

Both Blue Pullman power cars have only two windows located in the power cars. There should be three windows.

What should Hornby make next ? why Hornby ? what about Bachmann, what should they make next ? Personally, from my own point of view, I would like to see either Hornby or Bachmann produce a Blue Pullman. Failing that, then both companies introducing a range of Dmu/Emu's and possibly a few Electric lo...
