If that was the one at the Bowl I suspect my friend Liz was there, too.

@port perran Don't even bother, Martin. It's a racket :P

Ha... @Newportnobby .
I drove a minibus to Milton Keynes about 26 years ago for a Bon Jovi concert.

Although I had a ticket, bought for me I hasten to add, I elected to stay in the minibus and read my book.

No, Bon Jovi is definitely not my thing at all.  :D  :D

I gave up on Milliput some time ago as a model filler. I couldn't get it to stick and it just fell out when I tried to smooth it down. I use Humbrol filler now which I find preferable. There's also 'Gorilla Filler' which I've never tried but Gorilla glues are usually very good.

Cheers,

Chris

You come and fit 'em then :P

I paint my IRJs with brown stripes where they lie above sleepers to help hide them.
It works for me.

@Newportnobby must be a huge gap and/or well out of alignment if it causes derailments.   I'd be looking to lift and replace the track (with IRJs fitted).
