Hi Frits What great pictures or cad drawings what CAD package do you use? When I tried to use CAD I found that I could make the parts in the time it took to draw it. I understand practice makes perfect but I only have a short life so must cut metal. One problem you will have with your design is with...

Has Anybody got or know of Photos of these elusive places as we are building more and more Milk Tank Waggons .Thanks Brent

Three drops of Fernox into your tender using an eye dropper every time you fill with water will slowly clean boiler and keep injector cones clean. Now then Malcombe Gregory is starting to make superb injectors with bronze steam cones that do not suffer from Zinc errosion like brass ones do and I hav...

Hey Frits if you keep answering your own Questions we will all have nothing to do.I have a nice cast Bogey side for GWR coaches so there you go. off to Train Mountain Wednesday so see you when I return Keep those trains a rolling Brent

always reinforce the concrete and I join sections together using 25mm copper pipe at 1metre intervals to keep alignment. A smooth surface is best as ingress of water then frost causes spalling or surface break up. I put P V A glue diluted in the mix to give some form of waterproofing but it is the s...

Grief the Polderlands! Well you will be able to tell us all about how to build embankments and could run frog specials now there`s a thought, infact enough frogs for all our points! Perhaps you are in the wrong hobby boats comes to mind or swamp aero planes Happy sailing we have a water shortage ove...

You need to tell me what the pipe run is and what it involves eg:valves clacks etc. Also what the injector does when you try to operate it, this information that tells you where to look for the remedy. I may then be able to give a few pointers!

hi Fritz well the main problem so far is the pumping of the track as the train goes along.I secured my track every 3 mtrs and the ballast slowly works under the sleepers giving a fairground ride after several years. You need to secure the track at less than 1/2 mtre intervals to stop this and having...

Do not lay concrete on waterlogged ground unless it is a large base like the one in your photo!.One third of a meter wide strips to lay track on will move. Oak sleepers will rot unless they are sitting on a bitumen pad underneath. Believe me I have just spent £3000 replacing my sleepers. If the grou...

I will help if you like to design a railway that is easy to build and fun to operate. I have been building railways for Thirty years and my Railway can be ridden around at brenthouse.co.uk
