  • My quest for a restaurant car resulted in finding one, with a Romilly coach and an incomplete sleeping car thrown in. Total price 8 Euros!

    Wow, beautiful wagons! As for the chassis: any Lima or Jouef chassis would do, as long as you adapt the length to the body.

    You did well there. I have my own - totally not accruate - OE rake on my layout and I love it.

      @@ArcadiaJunctionHobbies I'll try and source some more O.E. coaches in future, they'd look well behind my Jouef 231C60 sausage motor locomotive or with my Lima FS E656.

    Hi Patrick, those are nice looking coaches. I picked up the BR coaches which came with the magazine offering a few years ago. It was issued every fortnight, had a relative in Glasgow get it for me. Got about 9 locos.

      These collections are interesting, but on the long run they can become expensive. There are loads of first issues on the market, like that Romilly coach or my Corbellini Italian ones. What BR stock did you collect? I'll have a look through your channel tonight. Any dedicated videos? Cheers from Padova, Italy.

      Ho intenzione di fare il telaio mancante del vagone letto in balsa, con carrelli Jouef di recupero. La cassa è completa di tutto. I dettagli sottocassa li farò in balsa e con pezzi di recupero da sprue di kit di montaggio.

    Can you test your audio? Sounds a bit muffled on my big tv

      I'm recording on my phone, I always try to speak clearly and towards the microphone. I'll have to get an external mic with a jack. Does it sound muffled throughout the whole video or only in specific parts?

    These are two beautiful CIWL car, I hope you'll get a set of them at one moment. Two or three years ago, a Facebook friend (which works on CFR in Bucharest) posted some pictures with a CIWL set of wagons that stationed a little time on his work area. Regarding your idea to make a balsa chassis for the sleeping car (I pretend I never heard Roxette's "Sleeping In My Car" in order to avoid any childish joke), I only have one advice (which came in fact from The Jacksons): "Blame It on The Bogie"! 😁🥸 The Romilly wagon is also very good looking (I like the local trains wagons, don't know why, maybe for their simplicity..) PS - I love Peter Sellers, either as Clouseau or Hrundi V. Bakshi!

      @@Cristake1974 I've seen the Simplon Orient Express close up on more than one occasion, but never managed to photograph or film it. I remember seeing it crossing the Ponte della Libertà bridge over to Venice, hauled by an E656, what a spectacle. But I was driving my car in the opposite direction leaving Venice. I also like Roxette, I've got a couple of audiocassettes, must remember to put them in the Panda, the only place I can enjoy cassettes at the moment.
