4 x Blue Spot fish vans from Hattons



Huge thanks to @exmouthcraig who supplied the last 2 vans I needed so I now have 6 with differing running numbers. Apologies for slightly out of focus camera work but my eyes don't function too well first thing :-[

I'm also embarrassed by the layout needing a good vacuum. Hookey fur gets everywhere :-[

First time since they left the factory they've turned an axle Mick  :thumbsup:

Expensive time for me, Bought 2 of the new Class 50's...



As they run so nicely I then decided to buy another one to re-number, and treated myself to a small rake of the new VEA Vanwides  :help: My excuse is I haven't bought any trains for quite a while  ;)







Cheers, Stu

My haul from TINGS...

The pocket-wagon was a total fluke. I'd intended to buy some bulktainers from the RevolutioN stand, but they were busy on my first stop. When I got to the C=Rail stand, there was a buy ten get the cheapest free offer on, so I had to take advantage. As I was about to leave, I asked when the pocket-wagons might be available. "What these(!)?" came the reply. I think 50 were express freighted over, ahead of the bulk of production. Well it would've been rude not to take one. I did leave some for everybody else. :D

Not sure if it's my eye's I can't make it out. May I ask the manufacturer of the buses, Kind Regards  :beers:

Nowt wrong with your eyes. :goggleeyes: There's no visible brand on the front - Bob's missing an obvious marketing trick there!

They are N-Train 3D printed kits. I got an arctic-tanker (top) and a Mercedes Citaro single-decker bus (bottom).

The problem is, if it says N-Train on the front of the pack then all everyone sees is that at a show. The packaging is there to say what the contents are. :)

My logo is on the back.

My latest purchase, couldn't resist a class 27 to accompany my class 25.

Then there's Merlin, which I think looks pretty cool.

And the massive class 60, how long?



They're far too clean, I'll fix that! :D
Just call me Ted, or Edward... or Ed.

Just not Eddie.

If you're my wife and you're reading then; look darling, remember that lovely red shunter I had? Well I painted it black using things I already owned and it didn't cost me a penny!



That's all. No need to read any further...


















Psst. If anyone else is reading then look what I bought;





It's not running too well but that's for another day! I've also got my eye on a maroon coloured one. Soon I'll have a fleet  8)

They seem to handle inclines very well. :D

;D I have to say that since the update I cannot get on with uploading photos. It all seems a bit random!  ???
