What's new at Dunchideock

That Bertie looks great in green!

Then again I think all locos in look good in green (as well as black!), but I am a Southern man at heart

That guards van is very neat, did you make it from the kit yourself? Or buy it built second hand? If the former you have done a terrific job with it

[SillyBilly]

I'd just been on your website having seen your new avatar, lovely stuff .

Also I notice you've fitted Accy choppers to your Andel brakevan, I'm hoping to do this to the stock I build from now on, I think they're very well made little pieces.

Neat little train you have brought yourself there

[mhlr]

And here's the best bit, If you remove the "chopper" from one end of each of your rolling stock, then make sure they are all facing the same way, you can lift any piece up without disturbing the rest of the train.  ;)

Take the spring out of it too, and you wont get buffer lock on tight curves if pushing back etc.

Nice to see another Bertie owner, shame I didn't see you there, I could have had a look!! Which stand you get it from?

Andel are certainly good, I only have a flat wagon to see what they are like, brilliant quality. Only problem I have with it is the coupling is too high, but I think he's resolved that now. I may consider more in future, but next on rolling stock musts is some bogie coaches!!

Oh I remember someone asking about the coaches, but never realised it was you! Oh well, now you know!!! I didn't get much chance to look at Back 2 Bay 6, as it was so crowded!! I had a look at the Lady Ann, Riesa and William on the second hand stall, but came home with a Fowler from someone only a few miles down the road!!

Ooooh, I look forward to seeing the new Andel stuff then, perhaps I will wait for them as they are bound to be cheaper than anything else...
