Better have a word with the moderator, then. ;-) Doesn't Turnpike have a filter (aka killfile) function?

=>Has anyone else noticed that "Emma" only seems to post in threads =>dealing with Lima, and the drivel "she" spouts is universally =>uncritical. I, for one, am getting a bit fed up with it.

Aw, gee, so "Emma" likes stuff that doesn't meet your high and certainly more valid standards. And you can't take that?

Tough s**t, John.

I'm for one am getting more than a little fed up with people who think their standrads are the only worthy ones.

Just try mis-spelling a word and see what flames you attract.

You should get yourself a lima class 67 John. Mine can handle trains on par with a Bachmann 37 and the 67 runs superbly. Yes, there are two traction tyres on a couple of the 8 wheels but you can replace Lima's wheels should you absolutely feel the need. I do however agree with you that most of the other Lima diesels only run fair and can not handle long trains so well, although my class 60 can pull

hope you liked the Dapol wagons!

Nice to know that my thoughts have created such interest in the group.

Kind regards

=>The only standards I am interested in are the ones where the locomotives =>can pull a decent length train and not slip to a standstill when going =>uphill, or when it rains.

Fair enough, but that's no reason to slag someone who likes what you find inadequate for your purposes.

In any case, OO outdoors is a challenge I for one don't wish to take on -- so more power to you, in all sense of that phrase!

Wow, Do you really still run when it rains? That has to be fun with things like long coal trains etc!

And I souldn't think there is much danger at 12V, other that the 12inch to foot operator getting wet! :-)

Got to say John, I agree with what you said in a previous post, I just hadn't picked up on it all till you pointed things out (Facts?)

Yes, indeed, that is what it says on the box (I know, because I just went and looked).

However, it's not what I would call a gazebo (but we'd better not get into that, or we'll be here until Christmas!).

Mr Turner, I am a little surprised by your little comments below, and a little disappointed that you need to bring my Gender into the thread by using the (s) he comment.

Just to clear this up I am 100% female, kind of sad you need to use gender, rather low.

Regards Emma

If you want to be referred to by gender-neutral pronouns, then we should start using it and its instead of he/she and his/her.

That is not gender, but sex.
