    Gary I figure it takes the eye away from the amount of track crammed into such a small area a real focal point.

    Lots to do to catch up with you Ian

    At least I can now run trains up and down with all the droppers now connected.:thumbs:

    The full J94 fleet well almost the Hornby ones aren't findable at this time are packed away.
    Unfortunately 2 green weathered ones are having to go back to Hattons as they have faults

    Now that cant be good having to send two locos back... :mad: Hopefully it is something minor, but Hattons will surely swap them for new models.

    Cheers, Gary.

    Hi Gary
    The faults are mainly assembly issues
    One has a screw sheared off in the body that holds the body to the chassis
    The other is also sloppy assembly and very poor factory weathering compared to the other Locos from the run
    Yes Hattons are going to swap them. Going back in the mail tomorrow
