Do you want any more model railway stuff? Got a fair bit of stuff stashed away from my younger daysHaving decided that 57 hobbies just isn't enough, I have embarked on building a rail layout.....
Well, I actually saw this Police Class 37 got released by Hornby and I wanted it (oldies will remember the advert for BR it was used in).
As I don't currently have a railway, I also bought a load of track and various other stuff!
Just got to get the garage conversion done so I can play with it

My brother changed from Hornby three rail to Marklin, the detail on Marklin is superb. All digital, you can run multiple trains on the same track. Lights on the locomotives and carriages and if you want a camera for a driver's eye view.
I sold the whole lot for a tidy sum.

I used to find model railways quite engaging.

We weren't humouring you.
I need validation, have I mentioned my brother's a barrister?
Isn't that a bloke who makes coffee?

Don’t forget to put the boot on before crimping. Obviously I never made such a mistake nor did I flair the brake pipes with out the union fitted.

Or have to split the shroud on an SWA gland, slip it on, tape the joint with black tape so you can't see it then turn it round so it faces the wall, not that I've ever done it
