Grrrrr Micro$oft grrrr. I use mozilla firefox and it allows me to store IDs and passwords seperately from cookies so I can delete all the cookies and keep my passwords. Besides - you are nuts if you don't write them all down somewhere because something will go wrong in a computer sooner of...

Hi val In the 2001 Great Model Railraods there is an article about David W. Davis' layout. It is a finescale HO layout with scale couplers. The air hoses from Kadee angle cocks, transmission wire and glad hands that he punched from kitchen magnets (this is more or less a quote - i have the...

I use Polly scale acrylics. They are great. I praticularly like that you can brush paint with them indoors without getting a sore head. Seriously though - they give excellent coverage although the reds and yellows require more coats than with Humbrol enamels (in my experience). neil

"pre 1940" leaves a lot of ground! :D

Good stuff :) When are you going to paint it? show us pics of it painted? :D

I've kept the pins on my Kadees so I can use magnets to uncouple if I want to but I have never had much success with the magnets. One of hte main problems is cheaper cars (and some expensive ones) have steel weights that out the cars over teh magnet. This means when you pull the loco away the...

Cooooooooooooooooooooooool. It would take a wee while to model that scene though :D I notice the locos are compounds. I would have thought that with a combination of Victorian engineering standards and the fact the the steam loco is really a fairly low tech piece of kit the El owners...

The wires are quite thin though so they could overheat on high current applications.

Pretty! :)

or you could click on "quick Links" on the right under the gauge logo and click the fourth one down called "chat" :) mind you, when i looked just there, there was only me :(

I came across Mark Rollins ones a while ago but I think that the wheelbase is too short for a standard gauge loco. Correct me if I am wrong though!

And that sodding huge picture you have in your signature helps how? :D

I haven't heard of service stations where you don't have to do it yourself in my lifetime! It seems a rather weird idea to me as having someone fill up your car for you is something I associate with the 60's. I like the idea of being able to bung your credit card in the pump so as you...

Ah, now I get it. I should have looked in the thesaurus for other words that mean a man of uncertain parenthood but start with a B.

It's like busses, nothing for ages then two come along at once. By the way, what does LPB stand for? Little Plastic Bloke? er :oops: can't think of anything else

Ahhh... They don't make them like that any more. Whoever designed those locos had been to Switzerland:)

It's looking good belg. Are you going to build a sawmill too? I also like the lumber carrier Stu neil

I love night time shots when there is plenty of interior detail. They look really realistic.

So sexy, Pete!

Thanks Pete, that is exactly the kind of information that I need. I hadn't thought of a wheel but I see now that that is the perfect way of puting weight down without creating too much friction between the boiler and the front engine. Can you describe the mechanism on the Sierra a bit more...
