Coach bogie Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I'm not one to spread rumours or gossip but I just noticed the 57' K42 PBV missing from the wishlist poll... Manor ,mogul and coaching stock votes please everyone. I will put in a vote on everyone's behalf but Manor - of no particular interest (though I did spend Saturday going up and down a Yorkshire branchline behind 7822) Moguls - I have built K's and Mitchell Coaching stock - Like others, I have built my own rather than rely on wish lists. Hope you all get what you want Mike Wiltshire 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trains&armour Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 There are two Slaters in my stash waiting impatiently to be built but it would be nice to get some decent off the shelf ones ! I've got three - two BTKs and a CK - in mine but I really would like some TKs. I actually have a couple of old wooden Ratio kits for these but they're not top of my list to build. Lucky b*st*rds!

Coach bogie Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I really would like some TKs. C32 sides and ends from Worsley Works, Roof from Comet, plasticard/Comet underframe, Comet/Geen fittings scratch truss rods. Bogies from Geen. Alternative from a good friend - bought an old secondhand PC/Wheeltapper toplight kit and substituted the litho sides with brass Worsley ones.Total cost £22.00.

Mike Wiltshire Well done Mike. I was desperately trying to remember where I got some sides/ends from a while back. Worsley have a 'secret range' that most do not know exist. Nice etches in my experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted October 11, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 11, 2016 Exactly,they had noone as their lead singer..... It was Peter and Gordon. At the time I was Gordon's doppleganger (including the thick, black framed specs) and suddenly I realised that certain young ladies quite liked the likeness and my specs were not a no no for chatting them up. Sadly that was the start of the corruption of my previous innocence and also an interest that took precednce over steam loco's. What a bl##dy idiot I was. pah and double pah.

RMweb Gold john dew Posted October 11, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 11, 2016 I like the doubleheader Rob........hadnt thought of that .......just posted this on Granby Sunday was Thansgiving Day in Canada........so it was quite appropriate that I was able to finally complete the K40 PBV conversion that Phil so kindly built for me last April.......as I said in my thread I wouldnt have done it without your initial suggestion Rob and I certainly couldnt have done it without such generous assistance from Mr Duck.......many thanks guys I havent voted yet so I dont know if a K40 (unlike the K42) is listed........but its one item that now I am afraid will not get my vote! Bearing in mind Murphy''s law I doubt it will make much difference! However I will be ticking the Manor and Mogul boxes and I guess I had better tick the 517 box for Edwardian Regards from Vancouver John 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulgabill Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Good Morning About a year ago we had a phase of good moning photos. I wanted to join in but couldn't resize my photos. As a result of finally starting my own layout topic, (A Cartoon of Helston(ish)), I now can. This is belatedly the photo that I would have offered fresh off the camera.
