Wow, you've all certainly given me plenty to think about. Thank you for giving me the benefit of your combined experience :D Only problem is that I've just found a box full of '0' gauge mechs and a lot of other '0' gauge stuff including a Lionel 6 coupled mech that would look soooooo fitted to a c...

Battery powered tinplate trains?
While digging about and shifting stuff to make way for my layout baseboards I found a large amount of Hornby '0' gauge and coarse scale '0' wagons as well as various old down on their luck '0' gauge locos by Leeds & etc. I thought I'd sold off all this stuff so I was surprised to find I still h...

I've found an on-line wholesale plumbing supplier that sells boilers by the metre. Well it's PVC pipe actually so I'll be ordering up myself a couple of metres of 50mm pipe which should keep me quiet for a while. Found a local on-line supplier of plasticard too so I'll buy in some 2mm and 1.5mm shee...

There was a particular brand of tea tree oil deodorant I used to buy that had a wonderful steam dome like cap. Unfortunately they changed the design of the container and the cap is now entirely different and quite unsuitable. Fortunately though I was wise enough to save the caps off the old bottle...

You know you are a 16mm scale railway enthusiast when......
When I spent a good quarter of an hour in the supermarket this afternoon evaluating caps on bottles for their potential as steam domes.

And just to go slightly off topic and distract you all here's the Class 15A Garratt being unloaded at Steam Incorporated's yard here in New Zealand. You'll also see a restored DA class diesel in the classic red and silver speed whisker livery that I remember well from my school girl days. https://ww...

In between other modelmaking jobs, - usually while I'm waiting for glue to dry, - I've been working on the Greendale Garratt. I think I've let myself get a little more carried away than I first intended, but I'm reasonably happy with the direction this build is going in. http://i883.photobucket.com/...
