Re: 'Railway' or Railroad'?

Another question - why are some railways in the UK referred to as a Tramway?

Re: Where is everyone ?

Still here and looking in now and again. Not much railway action here during the summer as busy enjoying play bowls.

Re: Bilteezi card kits

Mr Bone, how do you find these kits? Good bad or indifferent, just wondering what your opinion is.

Re: GM Seep or Rails PM ?

Thank you, I will use the 7/0.2 mm which I have already run and link the two point motors together.

Re: GM Seep or Rails PM ?

Brian, a lovely easy to understand reply.
Would you suggest running separate wires for a pair of Tortoise point motors for a crossover to work from one switch or can they be just linked together please?

Re: Latest news.

Perhaps they will do a free exchange on some of the not so good wheels on my Dapol wagons that keep derailing.

Re: RELCO track cleaners

Just reading the bit about replacing plastic wheels with metal ones.
Any suggestions for a source other than Hornby for metal wheels?
The Hornby ones are expensive at about £18.00 for ten, where else can I get good quality wagon wheels. (don't suggest Sainsburys etc)
