Happy Sunday!
It’s the XLBS Show……….Happy Sunday Fellow CoGs!
I came for the cowboy shoot’em up and stayed too long to end up with far too much knowledge of model trains. Hopefully Sherlock Holmes was wrong and I haven’t lost anything important. I see now why you don’t paint anything @lloyd.
Great show as always.
Love the idea of playing a campaign series over one layout using different parts for different scenarios.
Some of the model train enthusiast do incredible terrain. Big fan of Jason Jenson Trains on you tube purely for just for the terrain tips.
The 15mm Americans are certainly incredible, great work and lovely to see
Speaking of Dead Man’s Hand / wild west minies, don’ forgot the Black Scorpion resins. IMO the best range for the era. I’ve bunch painted in my Project
I’ve not been able to see how they compare which is why I don’t own any. I am thinking about them for undead though
They match in proportions but are a little bit taller.All Black Scorpion miniatures have really long legs. I’ll see if I have some photos next to other ranges.
Found one
The desperados pointing guns are my Black Scorpion guys, the bar folk is Knuckleduster (I think) from my friend’s collection.
Poor old Shay – couldn’t get a word in edgeways for the second day in a row!
@lloyd I think the reason that most model rail (and particularly steam) enthusiasts focus on the 60s is because that’s the era that they were young and trains were wondrous things to their childlike eyes. It’s what I always come back to about adult brains not being able to recreate those childlike feelings from new things, but you can get the same feelings from the same things. It’s the only reason I can’t quit GW ?
Happy XLBS show guy’s.
Lol the 3.10 to Coleraine.
The Pinkertons should be off looking for Smith and Jones.?
Have you got any of Warren’s dice Gerry.?
? The Good The Gooder an The Goodest. ?
I’ve been looking at toy train scenery for awhile and contemplating doing some 20mm war gaming. After seeing Lloyd’s stuff I wasn’t put off and I’m still looking at that scale.
I think Lloyd needs to treat his long suffering wife to a weekend break to Hamburg…
https://www.miniatur-wunderland.com/
I have been there – its amazing…
Oh believe me it’s on my radar but there’s no direct flights, maybe I can get there by train lol
A Shrubery.??
Damn you Lloyd! You’ve sent me down a bloody expensive rabbit hole a month before my annual bonus is due…
lol @bigdave
I’m still experimenting as TT120 is 1/120 isn’t quite right as FOW is 1/100 – it’s out by 20.
Peeps online say HO at 1/87 is a better match – it’s out by 13.
So it’s a fudge in either direction so I’m still thinking about it. The difference in size between TT 120 trains and HO trains is MASSIVE.
I got my 1/100 Atlas loco model today and even it looks BIG but is the correct scale.
As for HO buildings I don’t have any to have a look at so I don’t know about door heights etc.
Check this out this guy has used HO: https://www.flamesofwar.com/Portals/0/Documents/Scenarios/Raiding/Train-Raid-Scenario.pdf
Cheers @lloyd ! Must admit, that machine gun wagon looks the business, one of them (with a German crew) and a flat-bed carrying some stugs would be the stuff of dreams… I hope we get some more train related coverage Lloyd, the thought of combining a train layout with aa practical gaming board has really set a fire in me recently. Make sure you keep us updated!
If it was beer it would be in the tank an safe.?
Lol Lloyd has more rolling stock than the British rail companies.
Just stick swastikas on them an you’ll be fine Lloyd.?
Lol a great show guy’s.
Surely there would be an advantage to having detachable roofs on buildings for a train layout. Where else would you store your cheesy wotsits or cheese puffs for your guests?
“cheesy wotsits or cheese puffs for your guests?”
The stuff of nightmares right there lol

“Lloyd managed to order from Germany that one rare time where our postal service went on strike too XD”
Well shit, my delivery has been a shit show thanks to FedEx.
Happy Sunday…..
@lloyd your table topper should be perspecs, so you can keep it on to keep everything dust free when your not using it, your going to put a mat ontop anyway when you play a game on the topper
Oh a perspecs top would be cool 🙂
Great show as always and thanks for the GB it means alot to me ?
