I have got a new hornby castle (7034 Ince castle)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does anyone know wether the new castle chassis will fit on the old body Out of intrest

Now why on earth would you be stupid enough to want to do that? And no it most definatley will not!

Oh because my old castles are not very good running wise

just get a new castle and bin the old one, the old ones body is not a patch on the new.

oh i will probably keep them anyway. Unfortunatly My Evil sister lent me £20 for 7034, it came on sunday, and she has kept it!!!! I now have too pay her back but I don't get pocket money till the end of the month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is the new castle good

[Son-1]

Tell her you need to test it for an hour in each direction. If it doesn't work she won't get paid back until you have a working one. You get 2 hours running in, and she gets paid back as soon as you have the money as you will want to run it again

Unfortunatly she wants to annoy me so she won't give it back! I hope I will get some pocket money soon.

Picked the stepson up from school, and some of the words used by kids and parents in the playground you should be paid not to learn some things.

Well at least you got that castle back, Was there any damage on it?
Also what does an electric scooter have to do with this (unless it is 00 gauge)

Big update
hello sorry about the lack of updates i had my head out of a coach on the SVR (5643+43106+5164) and GCR (63601+1744 Golden Oldies). It was boiling in the shed so i had to run a train ,go out ,run a train ,go out etc.
Anyway An A4 60025 Falcon has been bought by dad but im not allowed it before my birthday (31-7-2010). Its in br green late embelem and i think is the better tooled version. it was £50 from the fleet air arm museum exhibition from the signal box stall. it is un boxed because it was split from a set, and dad will probably test it.

3047 Loorna Doone (not strong can't pull 2 coaches)

Hi everybody,
A lot of news is happening at the moment. Firstly I've bought a B12 loco in the anglian set with the non corridor celestory coaches in carmine and cream. Secondly I'm getting tons of locos for my birthday (31st July): 60025 Falcon, a Hornby Hymek, 4930 Hagley Hall and 7819 Hinton manor. Thirdly I got a non corridor chocolate and cream celestory at Yeovil Junction, so now i have 4 non corridor celestory coaches. Also I have created a website for my model railway. GWR gala pics are below:
