What year(s) is your layout set in, just out of interest? Innocent question for a friend.... *whistles*

Been really busy with non railway stuff for a bit and likely for a few months yet, so missed the crisis. That said Thank you Adrian for your diligence and commitment to WT, it is much appreciated.

Late 50s through to mid 60s Jordan.

Ah, and The Italian Job was released in 1969, of course......

Saw that one coming….

I assumed PC would mount and frame an A3 print and put it on his lounge wall (which I naturally assumed would be sheeted in Wills stone.....).

I had an idea that's where you were going Jordan

Yes it wasn't exactly subtle.
Cue gratuitous Pannier picture....

Can we have a 'wow' button? There is a continuous battle in my head against going 0 gauge, and pictures like this are akin to a booster jab!

I'm hoping the newly announced 00 Panniers will finally settle things.

As far as I'm aware we do have a "Wow" button. I've used it on some of your posts, Mr. G

 

[Osgood]

As sure as there is O gauge, there is a wow button - in the selection accessed via 'Like', Larry

 

[simond]

I tend to consider that icon more “shock, horror, oh sh*t” than an enthusiastic “Wow!”

perhaps something more like this?

Must admit I agree with you Simon - it is a "wow" expression, but somehow not in a good way.

Of course they won't!! The gauge is much more obviously wrong than standard O is, & you'll have to remove that awful Stone Age device known as the Tension Lock Coupler....
They'll cost nearly as much as an O Scale one, as well...
But thanks, I think that may be the first time one of my locos has got a "Wow!" ....in a good way, at least...

Larry,

your modelling is outstanding so the scale isn't of first importance.

Your 00 model is coming along nicely, I’m sure I not the only one enjoying the journey.

I’d suggest you stick with it ‘til it goes no further. Then maybe, another change of gauge & scale if that gets you going again!

Bet that scene is not to be found at the back of the class!

A really decent photo of a really grotty pannier, I like it.
