Did you paint those carriages or were they that livery when you bought them? Ive only ever seen them in teak livery, until I painted mine cream and green with black lining.
@Robtheredengine yes that does help. They just looked really like the livery I painted mine and I thought Hornby had stolen my idea. Just joking, they wouldn't do that. .......... or would they?
Great model, I've waited like you for this engine to be released for years. Now I find out the NRM won't do overseas orders (I'm in Australia) so the blood pressure got a little high after that. If any go to ebay the prices are ridiculous. Anyway at least I seen it running, thanks for posting this great little vid...Cheers!
@Benjy5997 You'll be please to hear then that at least 1 other is going to be used and used well!! So far she's only done a few circuits of my layout with 4 MK1's in tow, but she's shaping up to be a star performer!=D
OMG! You are so lucky! City Of Truro truly is a great engine! And according to this vid a bloody awesome model aswell! :D Too bad The NRM doesn`t ship overseas, I`d love a go at buying one of these grand Models. :3
You'd probably need another Gordon so his Dome can be modified to fall off with the detail underneath of course :)
Lol when I was six I remember watching Gordon and the visitor for the 1st time and later on telling my brother Gordons boiler fell off and he was like So his face came off? I got the words mixed up :P
XD he sure is, i'm trying to make a funny picture to put up but then i thought that scottriggs55 migth steal it like h has done with some of my other pictures.
thanks man your the only one that has commented on them, my dad made them based on the sheds that thomas, percy and today stay in i just need to paint them.
WOW! amazing! simply amazing, that model's £145 and it's already sold out! You're one lucky modeller! :)
