Interesting................... I never had that problem with mine but your regulator body looks to be longer than mine - I wonder if somebody's changed it? The red fibre washers look new................ I would suggest you are right Brian. The regulator is an R/C one and looks a lot newer than the ...

Something else I think should be taken into consideration is how many more of the more elder e members of this hobby have gained regular access to the Internet and have become generally more Internet savvy, evened just 5 years ago I spoke to plenty of elderly and even merely middle aged gents in thi...

Oh and regarding underhanded tactics by traders and dealers trying for the highest prices several times within the last year Iv been victim to the most disgusting and infuriating tactic employed by downright greedy dealers.

Gone are the days when you could buy a brand new Edrig for little over £400 and a second hand one for £300 odd.

I think in the next 10 years we are going to see either a huge shift in the consumer base or the market is simply going to crumple in on itself, its heading towards a crash

Recently I watched a RH Millie with no cylinders, worn excentrics, worn rods and completely totalled wheels went for £335

Insane completely insane

It looks very nice. I do like a red loco..... I've never seen that much snow. I hope the clanking noise in the background was a brass monkey passing by and not worn side rods........... ;)  But seriously I should look up head codes and figure out what they mean.

My Roundhouse Argyll has been through the wars. Its old RC set had a nasty tendency to glitch and on the previous DFLR its not been unknown for the regulator to suddenly fly fully open as it was going downhill into the sharpest curve on the line. I also went to a friends steam up, had to pop out to...
