    Arii 1/80th scale EF66 Hayabusa

    [This post can also be seen at: JNS Forum] So, there's been a smidgeon of progress lately on the EF66 kit. *It's gone from this... ...to this. OK, so it's been a bit more progress than I let on. *:P *But anyway, it's looking good for a static model. *However, with the motor and...

    What if there was a motor sport in the Olympics?

    You would be amazed at the amount of muscle power it can require. Endurance strengths are a must...

    Haha, if only this happened more often, adds a bit of humanity to it all... :lol:

    Cities/Towns to visit in scotland?

    The Whisky Trail is certainly recommended. I'm a bit biased though, being an ex-local. ;)

    "Man tries to board train with pony in Wrexham"

    Chepstow 20 to 1. It arrived at quarter past 4. Put a monkey on it. :twisted: See what happens when all the livestock vans disappear...?

    Van anyone help me identify this film?

    Fantastic movie and book, I urge everyone who hasn't seen or read it to give it a go. Was part of my English coursework in high school, which had many good reads in it. There Is A Happy Land, The Triffids, good books. Shame it also had Lord Of The Flies as well, never met anyone else who...

    Are the British too Gullible?

    I'm not falling for any of that whatsoever. :lol:

    Your favourite model train ever!

    Wouldn't mind finding a few more coaches to lengthen my Class 91 train a bit. When I do, I wouldn't have much trouble in elevating that to 'Dave's epic favourites'. :D

    Your Photoshopped/paint liveries

    I always figured it had a bit of HST front end (of course, not quite as pointy, but otherwise similar in appearance) grafted onto a 170 body. One heck of an unusual love child, isn't it... :lol:

    Exciting new release from the North Korean transport film unit!

    A fantastic blog, have read it a few times now. Urge everyone to have a look if they haven't done so.

    Newcastle-Morpeth/Chathill

    This has got to be the silliest thing I've ever read since I seen the bloke who tried to put sand in his car's fuel tank to "port and polish" the cylinder head. :lol:

    Exciting new release from the North Korean transport film unit!

    Both videos really confirm what a strange and fascinating world these people are forced to live in. That's one heck of an empty road they got there.

    Exciting new release from the North Korean transport film unit!

    Isn't it amazing? It's like there is a ratio for how despotic a nation is in relation to the size of the hat worn. :lol: Mind you, didn't think much of their version of "Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club"... :twisted:

    Is I'm grammatically correct?

    An ignorant teacher, we've all had those once in a while.

    Your favourite model train ever!

    I like to post pics whenever I can, so... 158 in the Barbie pink. The most local train to where I lived previously and introduced to the area when I was very young. Always liked them. 170 in Midland Mainline. Very odd choice for me, as N is not my typical scale. But at $99, it was...

    Your Photoshopped/paint liveries

    Should be interesting for those trainspotters who watched "Protect and Survive". :lol:
