Be aware while the details on the models are good, the paint schemes are not always prototypical. If you want prototype stuff, check before you buy for example I have MDCs DRGW HiCube boxcars and SP DoubleStack single cars neither of which existed and now have to be repainted if I want to keep...

cheers TivoPrince, but the url should be http://www.wheelsotime.com/

Thanks Tileguy, I'll look into the performance issue. I have to add though the Lenz deal is even better to us Europeans as sending decoders back is much cheaper. Shipping a decoder back to the States would make it very expensive, on top of the $17 you have to pay. I hear that fee is refunded but...

Not so much a household item, but still something not intended for model railroading... On Rememberance Day here we wear paper popies, which have a green stem which turns through 90 degrees and fans out into a cone with a centre "bobble". The paper flower slides over the "bobble" and in held...

I thought about going for ZTC, but the fact that the computer interface doesn't actually work put me off. I know the port is there, but for a couple of years now ZTC has been promising it a future enhancement, but nothing yet. Think I may opt for a Digitrax system but with Lenz Decoders. The...

Luckily for you, Anachron you can use the easier to paint Bloody nose sheme..I'm the one left looking for the E or PA unit in Daylight Scheme ;) Maybe I could go for the GS4, only thing is I hear it's a poor runner and the price this side of the pond is huge for something thats not A1.

Nice work Scott, saw it first in the MR Special. Sure beats a sign on the door LOL :)

Thanks Paul, no sign of it yet..maybe tomorrow ;) Dash10, I'm not sure in the UK the government decides who ships what, it may be up to the the sender in the US (in my case) to negotiate who delivers their goods outside the country. For example, USPS items arrive here via the Royal Mail...

Hi Guys, I've found shipping stuff from the US to the UK is very hit and miss also. Once I ordered some stuff on 6am US local time on a Friday only to have it arrive the following Monday..I can't send domestic parcels that quickly usually. Ordering some milled frames I had them arrive in 10...

and here's the little Xmas workhorse....

Just got the lighting taped on, so here goes....

Er Ray, the angelfire link took me to a porn site :(

To print the map, right-click on it and chose "save as", and save the image somewhere. Then open it in a paint program e.g. Photoshop/Gimp/Paintshop and print from there. If you don't have such a program, you may be able to import it via word, and print it that way. Worcester and Stratford as...

Ok lets try again ;) "Ottawa Central Railway" http://www8.cpr.ca/www2/commercial/General/Shortlin.nsf/0/063EA82D488E7E8887256C8B007AC02A?OpenDocument Roster http://www.trainweb.org/rosters/OCRR.html Hope this helps :) Simon
