    Gents, be careful here. That site is not discussing enamelled sign colours but actual building woodwork colours!My eyes tell me that imperial brown is the closest shade for a sign? Tim T

    You can already get a 3D printed 4mm 517 body from Shapeways, it is available in various guisesTimT

    Grahame, building your own means that your layout is not the same as those layouts where people have used the Kestrel/Metcalfe kits. (Other kits are available)Your layout is unique to you. More power to your scalpel for it. It is the approach I intend to use when I get to the buildings stage of Cwm Cynon. Tim T

    Accding to the JWP Rowledge book, GWR Locomotive Allocations, only 7810 & 7811 were allocated new to Banbury in December 1938. I have always understood the manors to have had Churchward 3500 gallon tenders? Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM

    It does look a little odd but what a wonderful justification for running a loco with only one buffer head!Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM

    The problem is that by the time one has sufficient time to spend doing modelling one is usually the wrong side of retirement age! The consequence of that is that other essential bits, such as eyesight and manual dexterity, are slowly deserting us. Tim T Retired one year now but still trying to model things

    On the old Western Region in Cornwall we used 12v for block lines. Tim T

    It depends on what part of the country your layout is set? In my area of interest, South Wales, it would most likely have been a Class 37 or two or a Class 56, depending oh timeframe. Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM

    Clive, if you pull up that close to the signal in a deisel the driver will get a cricked neck trying to read the signal! Better to stop half a coach length short. Very nice modelling but I hope you’re going to weather it? TimT

    It also does not come with any software! (I asked the seller about this) Tim T

    Good grief! That’s worse than I get using Safari on a Macbook. At least I do get symbols where the icons are supposed to be. I suppose somebody should tell Brian that his webpage doesn’t work correctly with all browsers? Tim T

    Brian, in your favor is the fact that you paid using Paypal. I have used their dispute resolution system in the past, albeit not with an international transaction, and that worked Tim T
