N Gauge Discussion / Re: How many locos?

Roy:

Your models of the A2 and B1 look absolutely superb!  I also have a Langley B1 but mounted on the then Langley recommended Black 5 chassis.  I think I built this around 1980 before I had the confidence to try lining, so my model has remained in unlined black. 

Am I correct in thinking that you may have posted photos of your A2 on the old N Gauge Yahoo group or some other forum? It seems very familiar. 

I am not sure if the Pro-Models RTR A2 was a resin model from Fifty-Six and a Half Inch Models.  The only reason I say this is because Les Richardson reported on the N Gauge Yahoo group many years ago that he had bought one from Pro-Models and the body was a metal casting but the tender body was resin.  He stated that the Pro-Models loco used a modified GF V2 chassis. 

I would be interested in learning more about these relatively obscure companies and their N gauge kits.

I'm just glad you didn't make a spelling mistake with 'messaged' :worried:  :-X

Just found out New Zealand had a 5.4 magnitude quake. I messaged my mate's wife who doesn't live too far from the epicentre asking if all was ok.

Her reply, "Oh, did we have a quake? I must have missed it. All good"  :uneasy:

The above clip was discovered while I was looking for another favourite duet. Beth Hart has a lovely voice/sit upon ;)

Yes, excellent - I have seen this before - a snippet popped up on Facebook. I wonder what Gershwin would make of this version.

I don't use RM Web but I've just seen on Facebook that it's a glitch solved by clearing cookies.
