I should ask Admin about it Tom, he's usually pretty good at sorting things like this!

Good solution Mark. Where did the bits and pieces come from, they look nice?

Great end result, well done.
Tbh when you started I thought you were on hiding to nothing, but its been worth the effort, well done.

I'd be very very surprised if anyone does, tbh. Langley do( did?) a 00 one and I seem to remember back in the days of my youth there was die-cast toy by Budgie or somebody, but it was only a toy and I've got no idea of scale, but I doubt it would be big enough for anything like 16mm.

That wagon looks good Tom, glad to help.
Actually, this thread inspired me to have a go a bogie wagon of my own a few weeks back. I did the bogies and then ......
it all kinda stalled!!

We have a couple of 'wireless' cctv cameras set to watch our local hedgehogs feeding and fighting. Linked through our internal wireless LAN to an old very slow laptop thats no good for anything else and we can see in the morning whats happened during the night ( and potentially rescue any sick ones)...

Yup, I did know that

Glad you weren't on this one Rik!

I bet that was a wise move! A portion of that and you'd probably have beaten the train to the end of the line!

Both very nice, Phil. I've always had a soft spot for the little grey Fergie and have a look for one from time to time with no success. My attraction stems from a plastic kit that I was given when I was about 4 or 5 years old and my dad put together for me. Needless to say it soon got broken, but I'...

Glad you are enjoying yourself Rik, please keep it coming. The mail train is the last of the day and seems to be only third class.... Leaving Shimla later today on the 17:50 and so will be dark for most of the 4.5hr journey but it means we can catch the Kalka Mail to Delhi at about midnight and then...

I like it! Especially the flangeless outer axles

We are there for two days, Sunday and Monday, just in case you are passing! It may have escaped your notice Peter, but very few people actually "just pass" your part of the world! :P :lol: Seriously though, it sounds like a good event and I wish it was close enough to be just passing, hop...

I know the feeling. I've had a complete new station waiting to go out for months but there is never enough time between the rain, the snow and the gales. Looking at the forecast its a least a week on Sunday before we are due a day without rain, and I ain't holding my breathe about that either!

Rik,
I believe you are off on your travels tomorrow, so just a quick note to wish you a safe and trouble free journey.

Fantastic, Tony, please keep it coming.
Not sure which I envy most, the skill, the workshop or the ability to devote the time to it!

Looking good John.
