    Still in hand with Hornby Towers admin and brand managers as to whether they want to retain a common forum in the global view all page or split it into separate forums as seen when the brand logo is selected on the splash page.

    Good afternoon Rob, I just wondered if there was any update on this? Not world demanding i know....

    Great news that companies are looking at TT:120 being a scale they can get involved in, typically though there is always a lot of chatter at shows so I will restrain myself until we see products coming out. 😁

    Totally agree.. When i worked for DELL/EMC we used to say various things at the trade shows. Did DELL make some of those, no. But at the time it was on a spreadsheet to be considered. So yes, when its on my layout, its real.

    Very impressive, I bet it’s loud up in that loft! 

    Funny u should say that... I did turn the socund down for the 4 decoders.. But they do sound amazing and these are my most favourite loco's so far..

  4. Thought i would do a quick double HST few laps of the layout today.. Haven't been up here much these last few weeks..

     

  5. So the 3 little new buildings arrived today. Good quality as the others. But they don't really go together as such. I'm guessing there will be a right terrace and maybe a middle one coming?

    I don't understand the shop names for the two buildings, to me they just look like houses, you would have no idea that a shop was in there?

    I contemplated getting one of those, but was put off by reports that the camera's companion App didn't work on current versions of phone/tablet software. How did you set the Polaroid up and retrieve the footage (which appears to be excellent by the way)? I did buy something similar, but the picture is rubbish - too much judder to be of any use. Thanks.

    Not sure on phone software, I plugged Cube into a laptop, it appears in file manager and copy straight to YT.

  7. So i bought a Polaroid Cube camera online.. £20 and thought i would try it out tonight.

    Converted a wagon, by removing the top part. The Cube has a built in magnet, so attached easy. Then put it in front of the 125..

    Loving the quality , i might need to add somemore weight to it..   Did a few laps..

    You can see the track needs aligning..

    Yes I received the notifications for my 4 blue/grey coaches today too. Maybe Friday is for people called Peter. An interesting order priority system if so!

    Am assuming despatch will be on Monday or Tuesday 

    I called Hornby today and said Peter NEEDS his coaches.. So they said they would get on it..   I got my pre order emails as well today.. She recon's Wednesday for delivery..
