Ever tried your hand at Vinyl sides?? Electra Graphics do some awesome coach Vinyl's....Im sure he does mk2 d/e/f Air cons if thats what your after?? Early intercity executive or later
INTERCTY
The later intercity would be ideal.
I see a few farish poole versions on ebay.
But they seem to pop up when im skint :-X
I will be here all P*****G night writting just how many outstanding projects i need to get finished before the years out!! >:(
But here's a start.....30 Mill Lane kit built BR Rudd's (Dutch livery) also a few Clams, Salmons, Limpets etc (From other kit manufacturers)
Finish my RMC JGA hoppers off (Farish RTR & NGS kit built)
Numerous amounts of loco respray and renumbering work (My own personal collection)
Oh and yeah.....Finally get round to building my layout!!!! :smiley-laughing:

I'm really lucky to have 3 rakes of Cross county mk2's. 1 early rake (5 TSO, mk1 restaurant 1 TFO and mk1 BG) A later rake with BSO (Vinyl conversion) and RFO (etched Conversion) A west Coast rake (5 TSO, MK3 Buffet, 3 TFO) and also a Virgin mk2 rake......For my later period. But trust me, they took me a long time to collect!!! And they wernt cheap, some were but the TSO's are fetching silly money at present!! All have been re-wheeled with the darker bach / farish coach wheels and detailed where needed in places
To get the last bits of baseboard put down, and the last sections of track laid.
To get the buildings put up and the rest of the scenery done.
To learn how to use an airbrush.
To build the last couple of coach sets I not need, what's the other thing? :) [A set of sleepers, and a TPO set, possibly a set of Maunsells.] Oh, and a cartic...
To get/build the remainder of the wagons I'm looking for (I need about another 5 coal wagons. Some more vans. Some open wagons, possibly...)
And to actually get the time to run some trains!
...to get off the fence and decide on a proper grown-up permanent scenic layout.
Germany or UK (South/western, W.Midlands or Scotland?)?
Then get on and do it, complete with proper scenery, ballasted track and other stuff that I'm too lazy with at present.
...More Terriers :D 5 just isn't enough
Being a bit more serious though i'm hoping to get myself a couple more manors and the W&S Coach pack (buffet and other) I'd also like to get the XC HST from Dapol when it is released
Ollie
This year I want...... to have my Class 455 delivered! :thumbsdown: Been waiting since July and was told SIX WEEKS!!!
tank....is that a model or real one haha ;D
:NGaugeForum:
:smiley-laughing: Model! I would have loved a real one, but some bright spark at the Selhurst Depot painted them green and got rid of the lovely toothpaste colours. :o :'( :'( :'( ;D
whos building your model then?
hmmmm how much do they actually sell old locos etc for, i know ews put afew 60`s up for sale, what sort of price thou?... new thread maybe?
:NGaugeForum:
Carl at It's N Gauge is building it, but I think he's been regretting it. ;D It should be the best thing he's made though, in my opinion anyway (rather than just resprays). I've also got a 4CIG coming from him. Hopefully by the end of this month, as he's started painting the 455. *excited*
I have absolutely no idea about old loco's being sold off. I would love to know.
i aint sold my arriva lot from him yet. thinking of lowering the price ;D
:NGaugeForum:
I would like to get hold of a Class 92 that Dapol announced in 2009. Though I really need to get some Dapol MkIII RFM's so I can finally scrap my decrepid Farish ones I am using as a stop-gap. Other than that, I want a Kiha 183 "Rainbow Express" that MicroAce (Arii) are making as its a nice model. I know it doesn't run in Kansai, but the styling is sick! ;).
I would like to see a model of D306 "Atlantic Conveyor" come out this year in memory of Gerald Boden, who sadly lost his fight against cancer :'(. A good friend who will sadly be missed :(.
Sorry to hear that D306Whistler, and your misfortune Broadtrain1979.
