Gidday all from a warm down under evening.

Hope your Good Lady repairs well, Rick.

Ed, I wouldn’t have looked twice once upon a time, but those big electrics have a certain “oomph” about them. I’m sure you’ll have hours of endless fun!

That’s a very interesting kit, you’ve acquired, Tom, while it would be sacrilege for me to agree with Rich and suggest you need several more, I’m not sure that a scratch-built HO scale K class blimp, for them to service, would fit on a modest size layout.

Apart from the good-looking modular setup, 10 out of 10 for letting kids, and grown-up ones, have a run. Nice one, EC.

If the Bear could do impersonations, it would be Homer Simpson, “Beer!!!”. I do presume that you have access to a layout with a big enough circuit to run all your beer cars, pike-62.

I hadn’t realised that David Soul had passed; that paint scheme has been copied a fair bit. Nice scene, Peter.

And from the Work-in-Progress, while I haven’t done anywhere as much as modification as Dan has, here’s the Cary shell, I’ve started on and need to finish. (and also do the second one I’ve recently acquired!)

Thanks for all the really Good Stuff,

Cheers, the Bear.Smile
