Triumph speedtriple Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 263 now with a crew of a driver and fireman,(I painted up and reshaped two Hornby black plastic figures) so now ready to hit the track. Ohh and now fitted back on the 'sand pipe' I didn't notice had come off. My bad when fitting the decoder./media/tinymce_upload/1fa137197de817ea55e4c2772f964c84.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/30e9f12b4430bcf261787b71e76982db.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/cde8618b8d63eae8a0c37852577f560f.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/121a7489afff88a2a02f2f9a146f4cdf.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I've been selling quite a few 'non-preserved' locomotives ... permitting me to purchase some others which I want, or are preserved. I had been hunting a Dapol TPE Class 68 for 3 months - finally got one. I've now just received 70013 Oliver Cromwell (rode on 'her' footplate at Bressingham 45 years ago!) and a couple of others ...Seems like I'm 'collecting' Britannias - 3 now. I now have 'the main 2' - those preserved so it stops there ... Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96RAF Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 17 pages @10 posts per page equals overkill LC. OK you need some track, you should have enough by now to run from Kings X to Ednabru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I haven't a clue how it occured. It seemed to continue to happen even after I logged off and logged on again. Sorry for any inconvenience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I haven't a clue how it occured. It seemed to continue to happen even after I logged off and logged on again. Sorry for any inconvenience! Your superior knowledge on many subjects far outweighs your occassional computing error. I would blame it on the forum mechanics, but likely to be a sticky keyboard.

LCDR Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I don't think the keyboard was the culprit because after that posting I immediately clicked away to another program and then clicked back when I had finished. So my keyboard was being used to manipulate the other program, if I remember rightly it was to interrogate the BBC website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 It can depend on the speed of your connection. I have noticed a post can take more than a few seconds at times - and I'm supposed to have 'the fastest Virgin's finest can supply' - but that's with wife, 2 sons, and myself simultaneously using it .... shouldn't hamper it that much. What I have noticed, is it's possible to THINK you haven't posted, when posting is 'in progress', and clicking on Reply again, can in fact register the same post twice, or even more. I'll - deliberately - try that now. Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Thanks Chris. Test - unfortunately - worked. So this is probably what has been happening with 'LC&DR'. Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I doubt it! I only clicked once! And then clicked away to a completely different website. And I certainly would NOT have clicked hundreds of times which is what must have happened under that theory. My keyboard shows no sign of sticking either.

atom3624 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 There is no end to the research, whether it's the good Reverend Wilbert Awdrey or that of railways in general, then there's what next, where to purchase, do I need that .... !!

Troublesome Truck Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Since I last posted I’ve taken delivery of a Hornby top link Class 58 Peterborough Depot in blue Mainline livery. Very nice and clean condition. Now need to find some mineral wagons for it. Also managed to snap up a driver loco of the Hornby Alstom Pendolino. Arrived with the male coupling snapped...flipping thing is like gold dust to replace. More likely to find hens teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 They are gold dust unfortunately.No real alternatives. I think I purchased a 'trashed' coach just for couplings last year.Must be a market for somebody handy in 3D printing? Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81F Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 /media/tinymce_upload/cb28e4c9f57393bec1f9de2af58202e1.jpg Just got this (part of a comemeritive pack made by Oxford Rail) from Hattons. DCC fitted by the shop and runs beautiffully just had to fit the wide couplings. Always wanted this one ever since I first saw the real loco's photo around 40 years ago!
