Dear All, I've been persuaded to build the typical GWR branch line train, a 14xx and an autocoach, while i have started the autocoach(blacksmiths kit)i have...
Hi John, ... So long ago now that I would have to look up my drawings to be sure but I do have (somewhere) the GA drawing to about 1/2" to the foot. This came...
Does anyone know how I can contact 85A Models? They produced a very nice plastic injection moulded Hunslet 0-6-0ST loco some years ago but I seem to have lost...
The BRM magazine had an article on making your own transfers via your computer. It was within the last 3 years (I think). Unfortunately I have given the back...

I have been ballasting some narrow gauge track with fine ground nut kernel, probably intended for 4mm or even 2mm scale. There are two approaches as far as I...
Many thanks guys! That was a very quick response indeed. I have sent an email (assuming I have used the contact link correctly!). Thanks again, Dennis Mulligan...
Frank, If you spray the ballast completely with water, plus a drop of IPA or washing up liquid, to the stage where is does look wet, you will find that your...
Hi Christopher, I had a feeling that the Alps printers might come into this. Shame about all these other people wanting them for transfers! Graham B ... for...
Hi Dennis, ... I'm right here. Thanks for your emails here on this group, on the Templot group and off-group. The Hunslet has been out of production for 7...

Frank Try the garden spray with just water. Wet the ballast with the finest spray you can produce. You should find the dilute pva will rush into the ballast ...
I had the same problem in 4mm scale. I used to first spray a mist of water doped with detergent (not dishwashing liquid which has a lanolin additive these...

Hello, OK..., here's a question I'm certain has discussed many times before. If 31mm gauge is proposed to help make 32mm gauge wheels track better and allow...
Frank, Oh, hun..., you're so close. The sprayer's the right idea, but try using only the water and washing up liquid in it. Get the ballast good and wet, then...
You are missing the point Zoë. The whole essence of 31mm is that the trackwork looks - and rides much much better, but you can run your existing stock on it,...
... Or, better still, use S7 wheelsets on 33mm gauge - with scale size checkrail gaps etc. That way you don't have to compromise all the time... Richard...
