Amen and amen. I really enjoyed his visit here, but it's disheartening how quickly it has run into the sand since then :(

Richard, I have to say that you did an excellent job of kick-starting this project :thumbleft:
A perfect example of how it was meant to be, alas there's been a complete lack of commitment displayed by those involved after you which, as you might have gathered, I find highly distasteful :?

It seems that there is a lack of detective skills on this Forum.

Victor Isle was supposed to have been posted to the CVLR on Monday 04 Feb 2013, and coincidentally Pendo Pilot last posted on this Forum on Tuesday 05 Feb 2013.

Has anyone heard from Shane recently? If someone has another method of contact (I've left an appropriate comment on his latest CVLR YouTube video) could they get in touch with Shane to see if Victor Isle did indeed arrive at the CVLR, and if so is he still there or has he been sent on to another railway?

Chris Cairns.

Victor Isle is currently headless at the CVLR, he landed on Monday! (Sent Pendo Pilot a message via farcebook!)

In his arms, he's trying to impersonate Nearly Headless Nick...but got a bit too carried away with himself

Just to set the record straight - all your fault what? That his heads broken off or that the whole project has come to a grinding halt?

The second I'd say, he arrived headless and one foot fallen off with me which I repaired. I guess his neck now a weak point! :roll:

I don't know about his neck, I think the weak point is elsewhere!

I wouldn't blame yourself jack. Royal mail postal service can be rough. It would be a miracle for mr isle to remain in one piece!

Well, at least he's landed in CVLR land. Fimo is brittle stuff. I am constantly dropping my figures and gluing bits back on (or miliput if the bit is completely lost)
Luckily super glue seems to do the trick. I am looking forward to what Mr. Isle will be up to next. I had heard he had BIG plans...

All I can say is sorry. Hope the rest of his adventures go ok, and no more parts fall off :lol:
