    You need to put a piece of tape just below where the name and number is going. Gives something for them to rest against. If you use a non solvent glue it won't cause any damage. Even PVA works or incredibly thin double sided tape from Hobbycraft. 😀

    I like the fact they leave them off, makes it easier to add the name of your choice. Just stick them on with uhu or similar. Not super glue. I did have a Heljan version but sold it. I did buy it second hand and it hadn't been looked after very well. I do like Heljan locos.

    Thank you. I have no problem with the colour. I'd rather see a loco in sky blue pink than no loco at all.

    Something to do with the reversing gear I imagine. I thought that was the name given to the wheel not a loco.

    The Western is Dapol.

    I'm afraid I can't answer that as I have no idea what a bacon slicer is and why what ever it is is called that.

    Might have done this before. https://flic.kr/p/YXnmE9

    I do the same Caiptean, pretty much the standard way. If you search through this forum for posts asking how to ballast, and there are a lot, the advice given is pretty much word for word what you stated. I use a very weak PVA to water mix, something like 1 to 10, then the ballast doesn't turn into concrete. 😮

    It is so nice to see a decent video. I'm afraid we have occasionally had some dire ones in the past.

    That's OK not a problem, that's what we are here for. Trackshack have it at a pretty good price but only one BR version left.

    Mjb looks like it will have to be Hattons at £189. Rails have sold out so they can advertise a price as low as they like. 😆

    Nice museum isn't it. Beats slogging round the shops. 😆

    Hi Walkingthe dog. No, what I said was "I was hoping to". Up to now I only have to new Locos , an M7 and a Terrier, the rest are from that famous online auction site. Kevin I have only had one loco a Class 31 break due rot out of over 100 so I reckon you'll be OK.
  21. walkingthedog
    Ha ha, not so sure it counts wearing glasses HB. 😆
  22. walkingthedog
    Are you saying you have lots of locos that are breaking up or are you asking if new ones do it? Margate won't do you much good, Hornby aren't there any more.
  23. walkingthedog
    I won't buy a loco if it isn't in a box. I did sell one once without a box because for some reason I just couldn't find it. I wrapped it so well I reckon who ever bought it is still unwrapping it.
  24. walkingthedog
    Little reminder for you as well Jacob, if you quote somebody who has posted a picture don't post the picture again, one copy is enough. Hope you're OK and still enjoing your trains.........and cars.......and lorries. WTD 😆

    Well spotted TL. It looks quite a hairy loco.
