Ah that’s very nice! The experimental green livery did look interesting! I got the Hood/Yellow Cab Stripe one earlier in the year and they are an excellent modelI went a bit mad today and treated myself to a LMS 5XP in BR green.

Ah, that’s very exciting! You may need to develop proper signalling procedures now though to avoid any nasty accidents. You could literally pass the token to each otherMy latest acquisition is a second controller for the layout. Once I’ve worked out how to use it I’ll be able to have two people operating trains at once which because mine is a single line with passing loops will be very handy.
I have 3 controllers and can operate 10+ trains. Controlling 3 is hard enough!My latest acquisition is a second controller for the layout.

Controlling 2 trains is bad enough. That might be because of the impending drop on the end of the baseboard!I have 3 controllers and can operate 10+ trains. Controlling 3 is hard enough!
I fear I can relate all too well to the idea of having to work out how to use it - I'm still working out how to use bits of my Elite despite having had it for a good few years! Sounds like a great idea, though, to be able to have two operators. Maybe Lapford will need a Signal & Telegraph system soon...My latest acquisition is a second controller for the layout.

Ooh now that is clever! Liking the button for "HORN" - obviously the most important of all the functions...I plugged it in and it worked straight away without me having to set anything up!

I am going off KR models, I find their customer service a bit poor, just hope their models aren't! Accurascale are greatNot bought anything since GT3 but do have Bulleid Leader inbound next year
I got one of the wonderful Rapido Leyland Fleetlines for xmas, i might be using it in an OO scale microlayout i'm considering making next year.
Well I hope Santa was generous to all of you modellers. Looking forward to seeing what he brought...
My daughter brought me a Bachmann peak for Christmas, which I ran today. She thought it'd be a good idea to fill the wagons with Lindor, so it's now the Lindor express. View attachment 107639
Very nice. Wouldn't be the Lindor express for long if I was near it!!My daughter brought me a Bachmann peak for Christmas, which I ran today. She thought it'd be a good idea to fill the wagons with Lindor, so it's now the Lindor express. View attachment 107639
Really good model, i've had a Mainline 45 in the past, superb.My daughter brought me a Bachmann peak for Christmas, which I ran today. She thought it'd be a good idea to fill the wagons with Lindor, so it's now the Lindor express. View attachment 107639
I can remember trying to get all of the wheels on the rails.Really good model, i've had a Mainline 45 in the past, superb.
When I brought the Kato track, in one of the packs was a railing "thing". It's brilliant for 1co co1 and steam locosI can remember trying to get all of the wheels on the rails.
I've still got original Mainline 45 : 45 044 in BR blue . It's never been out of it's box.Really good model, i've had a Mainline 45 in the past, superb.
Shhhh, is it in one piece?The Hornby Hush Hush.
Now that does look nice. One of, if not the, most important coaches in a rakeWell I’ve just ordered a mk1 buffet from The Model Centre who’ve got a sale on at the moment.
It’s not so much for running on my railway, I’ve got it to run on my friends layout (which has more of a main line feel) when we start doing shows again.
