Thanks guys.

For the coal loads Dino, I cut a block of polystyrene so that it was about 2mm below the top of the trucks. Then ballast was glued on top with pva. The load is still removable too.

No I don't Thomas Annie or Clarabel yet Jacob. Not sure info ever will either. They need to sort out his face first.

Thanks Mully

As Henry was a non runner I have decided to back date this one to his old shape so that I have both. So far progress is seen below.

I have cut off everything from his firebox back and got rid of it all, except for the footplating. I also has a spare body of Gordon so everything from his firebox back was also cut off and modified to fit Henry's footplate. Henry's steam pipes on either side of his smokebox have also been cut off.

No i forgot to turn off the controller one day when I went to the shops. Henry derailed and his wheels jammed and the motor was smoking when I got back. Yes, like I said above I will get another so I have both versions. More work to Henry.

I've glued the footplate back together and added Gordon's firebox.

I'll wait to add the cab until I've painted the cab and firebox seperately.

This was a little joke I came up with in my head and I decide to also posted, just to make others laugh, to have a bit of fun, which I like doing.

Ok let's end this right now. Sure, some people may find things annoying that others post, and almost every other thread recently has had one or more members having a go at other members. Personally I am getting sick of the constant attacks. If you find something annoying then fine, but keep it to yourself. There is no need to voice it publicly on every thread it happens on!

If you are so confident that the response is not needed, then neither is the original post. If Jacob would just stop, so would the need to respond.

Hey Titanic5972,

Nice loco collection. I don't see any front couplers on any of your locos. Did you remove the couplers on some, or did they all come without them? I know Thomas, Percy, and James models come without their front couplers, but I thought Henry, Gordon, and Salty had them (I'll have to check).

I realize those big hooks & loops aren't true to the series illustrations and videos, but they are quite useful for operation. Didn't the original models made by Rev. Awdry have front couplers?

Yeah I removed them all. James came without it but I removed the rest. Don't like the look of them. If I'm double heading or anything I have them close by so I. An re attach them.
