To quote one of the characters interviewed about it on the local TV news "if the power goes off, we'll have to watch telly by candle light..."

N Gauge Discussion / Re: Why Farish doesn't re-rele...
Last post by Bigmac - Yesterday at 11:45:50 AM
would the difference in boiler size even be noticeable in N gauge ?

When i restarted in n gauge 8? years ago---someone had listed a number of minitrix Brits renamed and numbered as Clans--i was lucky enough to get one ( £40 !!! )  . Back then i thought the clans had smaller driving wheels than the Brits.

Quote from: Newportnobby on <strong>Yesterday</strong> at 11:18:37 AMI saw an acquaintance in the supermarket this morning and it looked as if he was laying in emergency stocks like so many others have done. When I asked if he had a gas cooker he said no, and when I asked if he had a camping gas stove he looked me as if I was mad. I told him he could have a house full of emergency supplies but chances are there'll be no power to cook 'em with

be eating one of them "cold collations" then. Tin of corned beef, tin of cold baked beans poured over the top - nothing quite like it  :D

The "Unread posts" list is unique to each member, and shows threads that have new entries since you last viewed the thread...
A topic you started or were the last to post in, will be listed for other members until they view it but won't appear in your "unread" list until someone else posts in the thread I e. there is a new reply you haven't read yet. (by default it assumes you read what you posted, though we have doubts about a few members on that one...)

Quote from: Firstone18 on <strong>Yesterday</strong> at 08:37:08 AMI have recently posted twice on the general section but neither post has appeared in the recently added so members will not have seen them.
Can one of the mods please advise why this is?
TIA

You don't see your own posts, but others do.
This one did appear in the recent unread though? I'm sure in the past a new topic I've posted has appeared in the recent unread section. I'll leave it for now and see what happens when I next start a new topic.
Cheers.

Quote from: GlenEglise on October 27, 2026, 11:12:57 PMHmm a small class of ten, like the Baby Deltics?

You are having a laugh right?
I didn't realise the (EFE) Baby Deltic was a RE-RELEASE of a FARISH STEAM loco (per the title and OP of the thread)...
Perhaps being coal fired was their ultimate flaw...

Quote from: GlenEglise on September 02, 2026, 08:15:21 PMperhaps needs to start a new thread?
Definitely... ;)

No idea, I'm afraid. Like others, I use "all unread." Working fine. One for @Tank ?
