I had a stroke in December 2010, and while i,am recovering i decided to scratch build a 1/24 scale railway on oo/ho rail. So i decided to make a Railcar, the chassis is an old intercity 125.
Thanks for sharing, shows what you can do with a little imagination and balsa wood
I had a stroke in December 2011,.....
I'm more impressed by your time machine success.
Can I borrow it please?
hi sorry 2010 but im in the process of building another out of coat hangers to get back HELP!.
Well done Mike, word of advice, paint it the right colour before grumpy Pinz and Billy anorak start moaning.

Well done Mike. You've got more patience than I have. Good work on the attention to detail. Hints of rust on the exhaust of the green industrial loco - nice touch!
Is that Peco track or Hornby ? When I made a fixed layout for my (then) young son to play with (THE perfect excuse!), I painted the rails with Humbrol "Rust" and just wiped the railhead clean. Looked quite authentic.
Keep up the good work AND the recovery.
Grumpy Pinz. (Less of the "old" Bert !!!)
nice one mike, keep up the good work
Pretty cool
excellent build mike, you must have a lot of patients
excellent build mike, you must have a lot of patients

woops! patience!
Coming along well Mike, like the pebble-dash on the garage and the waney lap door.
To my dear Grumpy Pinz......."Old" not guilty as accused.
hi, thanks everyone for compliments yes the track i use is OO and mixed hornby/lima/jouef which i get from bootsales and people have given me the buildings im making out of card or anything i can find the layout is 5,foot X 4,foot made out of MDF and bit,s of old bed slats i recycle so keep watching im in the process of making a set of 2 terrace houses THANKS..
Oh dear. Sorry Bert. Shot myself in the foot there. I'm "sure" the original post said "old". Mmmmm. Ok Ok.. who's altered it ?
Sorry. OT.
That's amazing, as already said, you must have a tonne of patience, hope you can continue it for a good while and build a complete layout and maybe even a story to accompany it, would be epic!!
Well done!
Nice work,wish you well for a speedy recovery.
HI,Thanks again everyone just a bit of information on the gauge i,am modelling GN15 is based on 15" narrow gauge where there is a few real light railways based about england so 1/24th scale half inch to the foot on OO 16.5 track is loosely 15" gauge GN15 if you google the Gnatterbox forum it will give some idea of the gauge and some of the models on the site are great hope this of help to understand what im trying to make THANKS mike..

HI ALL,.. NEW,S... A MAJOR GAS EXPLOSION AT M.A.R RAILWAY...a police spokesperson said today 20/06/2011 there was a gas leak which caused a BANG at a secret massage sauna situated in a basement in a block of terrace houses that were being built. IT was a BIG BANG there was absolute carnage to the area of the 5 foot X 4 foot layout. THERE was CONDOMS, K.Y JELLY TUBES, TOWELS, RUBBER AND LEATHER items, various BATTERY items, and funny looking BLUE TABLETS, scattered all over but with STIFF opposition the brigade managed to put the fire under control and out .THERE was no danger to the public and no casualties. A police spokesperson said it was an inside job a they are KEEN to speak to the owner of the house a description provided by a neighbour said you are looking for a YOUNG LADY aprox mid 20,S FIVE FOOT SEVEN in hight BLONDE HAIR,, MAROON DRESS ,BROWN EYES,and she has a FETISH for rubber round things.IF this woman ROLLS into to your area please INFORM your local police station .THE owner of M.A.R RAILWAY is very depressed and doesn,t know IF he will carry on .WE WILL SEE???...
THE FIRE BRIGADE PUT THE FIRE OUT NOT the brigade SORRY ..
SORRY the WHOLE layout NO MORE was wiped OUT BY GAS LEAK!.
Your a bloody jinx Mike, did you build the Titanic by any chance.
NO BERT it sounds like your fancy woman keeping a knocking shop AND P.S IM NOT 99 YEARS OLD THANKS..
Heading to be a storm in a "C" cup !!!
F too big,remember more than a handfull is a waste!
Sorry Mikeann,couldn't resist,keep up the great work.
The way this is going I can see Mike will have to make a perfect scaled down washing line of women's underware. This will be at the back of his terrace of houses with "Peter The Perv" just visible peeping behind the net curtains !!!
There's a challenge Mike. What size is a clothes peg in GN 15 ??
Maybe get the bomb damage sorted out first !
I hope that gas leak wasn't Bert...
NO it was bert,s lady friend MADAME SUE..
IVE gone from making nice little model trains and buildings for a hobby and recovering to GERMAN BOMBS, GAS LEAKS, FIRES, MASSAGE PARLOURS, MADAME SUE, UNDER WEAR, TYRES OF ILL REPUTE ,BIG/SMALL BOOBS ,FIRE BRIGADES, POLICE, AND EVERY MAD THING YOU CAN THINK OF,no wonder im feeling a bit down BUT DONT YOU WORRY I MIGHT?????????? BE BACK WITH EVEN BIGGER.. BOOBS,GAS LEAKS,TYRES,UNDER WEAR,EVEN BIGGER BUILDINGS, TRAINS, PEOPLE, AND ANY MAD THING I CAN THINK OF, SO THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND WORDS GOD BLESS X..
This thread gets stranger every day...
let's hope it keeps going!
Keep up the good work Mike. It's obviously very therapeutic !
You've just been unfortunate Mike you came across a bomb the bloody Hun left, inconsiderate buggers they were, we all enjoy your models and admire your sense of humour, i hope your recovery is coming along fine and you do realise being on here, you will end up being sectioned with the rest of us.
Keep up the good work.
quality
I remember my massive train set in my attic wow 16 years ago was cool
brings back memory's keep it up good work
happy days
THANKS ROBO AND EVERYONE i will try my best,i will try and find a nice lady for the layout for BERT1 who,s a bit down over his van SORRY bert hope you get it back soon and the tools take care..
Looking good Mike, Where's that power drill come from? what you been up to Mike?, now if a White Transit van appears on the scene i will be worried.
HI BERT, WHEN ive finished making the layout you are very welcome to have the drill to replace the one stolen but i would have a word with your sweetheart SUE GOODYEAR,first she can drive ..
last time i did a catch up it was page5...its going great mike and the banter in here is refreshing at the moment ha
phil ha
i think you should go through the whole list of stolen stuff and fit it in lol...hey on a serious note it could help jog peeps memories
Sorry Bert... Hope it turns up soon buddy!
Looking great Mike and Ann!! Keep those updates coming!
Looking great!!
....
Thanks Mike, Miss Screw can serenade me anytime, I'll have to jump in quick before grumpy Pinz (handsome sod) makes a move.
HI BERT, ITS MS. MS. TINA-WILKINSON-SCREWS NOT MISS! she dont like that..cheers THANKS...
Whoops, I'd better just call her Tina, did you know we're on first name terms, and for goodness sakes, don't let her get blown up.
i can see this turning into a small village!! keep it up
Fair bit of stuff there Mike, just one question, does Ann go everywhere on that skateboard.
Tina will do Mike, she's a good singer with a fine pair of lungs.
Mrs Bert will shrink the ambulance for you in the washing machine, after all she manages to shrink everything else.
Removing the skateboard will show Ann's legs off better.
great work Mike,keep it going..oh yeah can we have some fit chaps/eye candy for us girls?
I could do with a sailor please!
are you going to do a tunnel for the train to go in Mike ?
Is that a euphemism Summer?...
The post office is looking good Mike.
Oh Mike, he's well past his sell by date!! lol
We want a hunk!
Still loving your work and humour.
Hello sailor! He'll do me,thanks Mike
Where did you find him? Is he just a passing ship in the night,cos i really need full time crew!!?
Yes, keep it up, this is a brilliant thread/blog, thanks
Funny looking Nissan... doesn't even have wheels!
Good work. like the updates
HI, OK! OK! SO I SPELT IT WRONG ITS A NISSEN HUT SORRY I WILL TRY TO GET RIGHT NEXT TIME CHEERS...
Hi Mike
This is the first time that I have had a look at this topic,as I didn't think it would be of interest to me.How wrong I was,it's great.
You are doing so well and your imagination is brilliant!
Keep up the good work,you are keeping us well entertained.
The engine is looking well Mike, When the blue engine flew across the layout, did it by any chance see off Tina, the only reason i ask is that Debbie the driver looks a bit tasty.
Look forward to seeing them Mike.X
Mike, Norma is very much like her father Stormin Norman, hang on a minute, I'm not going to find a torque wrench in the wrong place am i.
Very flattering Mike, now don't you be putting photo's up out of your magazines.
HI, OH i nearly forgot i got a bag of ROAD SIGNS for the layout from the BIG second hand store this morning regards mike...
I wasn't having a go at your spelling Mike... I didn't even know what a Nissen Hut was
I just assumed that there was another type of Nissan. My apologies.
Looking good! What scale is the car to be correct?
I will keep my eyes peeled for a 1/24th Aston Martin... sonmething like a DB5?....
What year is it at MAR Railway?
Have to say Mike, Ann's legs look a lot better now she's off that skateboard, is that a potential handbag i see on the lead.
Keep up the good work, you're doing well.
Sounds like Jaws can be a bit snappy sometimes? I'm sure his bite's worse than his bark though!!!
HI, He,s not that bad he more sucks people to death, DID i not tell you/everyone he,s got FALSE TEETH it cost an absolute fortune for the GNASHERS it was a big job for the local dentist MR. T, PEGG .AND as for JAWS he was very nearly made into a BAG and SHOES BUT WE saved him and he was very grateful and he makes an excellent guard and he,s cheap to FEED any worker who do,s not pull their weight in building the M.A.R RAILWAY or any intruders SUDDENLY disappears? overnight never to be seen again?, someone said they all go on a good holiday IT must be a good hot/nice place cos they never come back..cheers mike.
Let's see his grills then....
HI, is that his teeth??? sorry for my ignorance .mike
HI, Just to say the 14 CREW from the shetland isles are on their way and the single decker COACH from kent as well i have had the people from these places read our wikiwirral forum and they say they are impressed with the site (we might go global yet)
thanks everyone take care .mike..
Sorry yep his teeth!
HI, SORRY phil he,s only rubber and its just part of the story (make believe) and the FUN side of the M.A.R.RAILWAY layout and i just CAN NOT get any 1/24th SCALE FALSE TEETH anywhere. cheers mike.
P.S we might just return him to the wild.
HI, SORRY phil he,s only rubber and its just part of the story (make believe)
That's good... I hope he's got a nice swamp to stretch his jaws in
Bertie beware!!!
Oo all this is rivetin-Im hooked! -much betta than Emmerdale!
Bloody hell Mike, that looks like Willing Winifred the Ayrshire acupuncturist, i can't take her on, I'd be stepping on Pinz's toes, got anything less manly and preferably one that doesn't shave.
Lovin' him already.Do we have to share him?
Looks like an early Jock, wait until he turns blue with the cold and then he can go in a fillum.
Lovin' him already.Do we have to share him?
Not with me you don't Bezzy, be careful how you chase him, especially with that pacemaker sticking out of his chest.
Lovin' him already.Do we have to share him?
Oh poor bloke.Lol

HI, sorry bezzymate i was not trying to refer to any BAD INNUENDO,S regards mike...
Aww don't worry Mike,I was just having a bit of banter with Bert,it takes a fair bit to offend me!
HI, i was not trying offend any body that was not my intention . HAVE I WORDED IT WRONG OR SOME THINK? PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I HAVE OFFENDED. AND ALSO SORRY IF HAVE?!!!!!!!. The ice-cream van is now off the layout..
No Mike honestly nobody is offended it was me and Bert having a bit of banter about the 99 cornett.
It's really good fun,keep it up please.

Looking good Mike, love the fire engine!!
hello, im sorry i must be shouting when i do the pictures and write about the layout i just put capitals to say about certain words like m.a.r railway etc, anyway? ive not touched the layout in 4 days dont no whether to or not still thinking?????? about it..thanks for all the support everyone and kind words.mike.
It's all in the learning Mike of how things are interpreded on the web and I'm learning everyday!
Get going again Mike we've missed you,a bit like waiting for the next episode of Corrie.Lol
DONT stop Mike,you're getting quite a fan club.
It's all a learning curve Mike. We all make etiquette mistakes and maybe accidentally tread on other folks toes. I've been grinding away on the electric mangle for years and I'm still learning.
You should have read the small print Buddy. No one actually leaves wiki. Look out of your lounge window Mike. See those guys standing by the car opposite with shades and carrying violin cases. Rumour has it that the big bruiser on the left carries a sawn-down Dr Beeching in a shoulder holster. I'm sure you wouldn't like a "Withdrawal of Passenger Services" note shoved under the door now would you ????
Get working on the P.Way Mike and lets all see some more pics please !

OMG no one ever leaves Wiki!? What happens to those that try? Do they get put in a village in Wales, given a mini moke to drive and get chased up and down the beach by a weather balloon every now and then lol.
Well Mike, we will all look forward to the new layout (planning permission approved) don't forget to leave space for a naughty chair
I'd be much obliged if you can fix a young lady up for Pinz, please make sure she's not a acupuncturist.
As this is a family show, I'll refrain from the obvious comment ! Besides, I'm in with a chance with Dirty Gertie from the Gorbals.
Mike, why dont you have the layout the whole size of the spare room. you could leave access in the middle for you to tinker but you'd have to crawl underneath. Im glad to c your back... Happy building x
You'll need that road for Bert's van Mike...
here is where the terrace houses and post office are going..
mike.

oh thanx for including me on that mike after id said such nice things about you on here and the other site!
You may have a point rocks, i was wondering what on earth was Mike going on about, now i see, is that why this other site was set up so people could [censored] members off that contribute on here, where's your guts, why not do it on here where all can see.
How low can one sink when they call a stroke victim a nutter and others contribute nothing but urine taking in a similar vein. It seems now that you've had your fun with one member and you're moving on to another, perhaps you think its another easy target, well Mike, i think on this one you can rant as much as you like because you won't be insulting anyone on this site.
Oh Mike please carry on with you hugely appreciated sense of humour,we love you!
Whoever gave you the link to the other site should hang their head in shame knowing full well that it would only upset you.
I have to go out for the day but,would love to return and find that you have done a bit more work.X
A meat pie !! Phew, that's a relief ! Thanks Mike.
Have just been on this (alternative?) site. What a shower of little s*its they are. I went through all of the postings and they seem to be slagging off loads from Wiki. Air it on this site if you need to say anything. What you've done is the cowardly way out
Keep up the good work Mike,more power to your elbow.By the way,I hate to seem thick, but what is this alternative site?
[quote=ludwigvan]Keep up the good work Mike,more power to your elbow.By the way,I hate to seem thick, but what is this alternative site?
this was posted by a MRMAKIE on the other site this is why i stopped doing the layout because of people like this..{ quote}..... Sorry but I had to paste it here in case it gets deleted off next door. What a fooking classic. I am so glad I witnessed this nut job having such a meltdown on the internet. Just read it through and imagine it in a Basil Fawlty voice..... {unquote} .

The 'other side' is for people to be able to rant to their hearts content without the fear of a ban.
We all love Wiki and we don't want to lose our access to this wonderful site so we have a place to go to where we can swear and deride anyone we like without having to mind our Ps and Qs. Any of you members on Wiki are more than welcome to come join Paradise and put your views across.
Mark is well aware of the 'alternative' site and as there is now a 'zero tollerance' in effect, people need somewhere to go where they can scream and shout if they want to.
Before you start telling me where to go, think of it this way; if you met a neighbour whom you disliked in Tesco and you then went to Asda and met a neighbour you did like but who also didn't like the first neighbour would it be wrong to [censored] off said first neighbour just because you are in Asda but it is ok to do so in the privacy of your own home?
Everybody on WikiWirral has had a falling out with somebody else on Wikiwirral at some time or another, all Paradise Peninsular provides is somewhere where anybody can have a rant about it.
This reminds me of the child who isn't allowed to take the penalty so he picks up his ball and goes home, why don't we all realize that they are words on a screen. It's not as if you've been punched. Learn to laugh at yourself because if you take life to seriously it'll knock you on your behind.
I won't tell you where to go Croc because i like to think my standards are a bit higher than accepting the view that its fine to make fun of and to [censored] off someone who probably was close to losing his life and most certainly lost a big part of the life he had. I for one won't be accepting an invitation to join any site that is set up to take the urine out of members from another site, if i wanted to do that, i like to think I'm man enough to do it right here and face the consequences.

I've been on the other site, and not once did mike loosing whatever come up. Proof being I don't even know what is wrong, also I think putting this problem at the centre of this is even more insensitive.
No insensitivity at all, Mike is more than man enough to face the challenges he has in life, what he doesn't need is people making fun of him or his present condition while he's trying to overcome them. Obviously my standards are different from yours.
If he is man enough then he doesn't need you or anybody else to stick up for him, he also should be able to take any fun being made of him on a website! Come on people, grow a set!
I don't think for one minute Mike needs me to stick up for him, as for myself i stick up for decency and what i think is decent., others have to form their own opinion and make their own decisions and choose what road they go down.
well said Bert
I hink the other site has had second thoughts on allowing guests to see what's been said. They wouldn't have got away with what was said if posted on wikiwirral, that's why the other site was created because of all the bans they got.
First off, Derek, I have never been banned from Wikiwirral, secondly, as I have already said, the other site was set up so that we (and anyone else who cares to join) can say things that we can't say on here because, as you said, we wouldn't get away with it on here. Thirdly, the other side chat has been temporarily closed because it was inundated with guests, no doubt from here, looking to see what the kerfuffle was about, who had no intention of joining and contributing. So, in conclusion, you have just re-iterated things that I have already said, thank you.
Why close the chat, let folks see what is posted (wikiwirral does) and let them make up their own minds whether they like it enough to perhaps join the site.
This is my last post here about this - shall leave here for Mike to carry on doing his bit which has entertained plenty of folks on wiki
Why not just send each other an email, or do it through facebook. You're a lot less likely to have a shitty vapour-trail coming from it then.
This is not an issue for Wiki Wirral
Complaints need to be taken up with the administrator of the site you refer too.
If you get no joy you can contact there isp or contact the police. To have the comments removed. Or site shut down. just Google it.
This is not a Wiki issue.
Back on topic.
Mike, you've added nothing bad in this world, you can stop talking like that straight away, have yourself a little break mate, recharge your batteries and we will look forward to seeing you soon.
Mikeann. Carry on with what gives you pleasure, I enjoyed seeing your project develop and your humour shine through, for those who wanted to recognise it. Like the silent majority on the sight which are many, I did not comment or give you any encouragement and I apologise for that. I would recommend reading the poem IF by Kipling
You fit the bill my MAN.
Aww Mike,please don't go.X
Why close the chat, let folks see what is posted (wikiwirral does)
It doesn't.
Wow, don't let anything on the other site wind you up. Get on with what you enjoy doing and get on with your life. Construction of your train line is obviously appreciated by a fair few people, don't cut off your nose to spite your face.
I will ensure anything offensive is gone, but I'd appreciate you telling me who pointed you across there, and if it's a current member then they can f**k right off, as it was never designed to cause problems with wiki, and they won't be coming back.
Maybe you've got a mole or double agent, don't talk Mike, no matter how many finger nails they pull out.
Oh! I was enjoying reading and catching the updates! Reminds me of my Grandad when I was little he transformed his back room into a scale model railway, it was amazing
Hope you pick it back up again soon.
Hope to see you back soon Mike.
hi mike don't think what others think
1. do you like doing your railway?
2. do people like you doing it?
3. is it helping you get better?
just keep doing it xxx
ps more hunks please
xxx
what ever you do take care xxx
I think Teardrop sums it up perfectly and that there comes a point where this all becomes attention seeking.
For every hobby there's a bunch of people who don't understand it or think it's sad. I play badminton, a lot of my friends call it 'geeksport' and rip me to bits with jokes about cups of tea and scones.
I didn't throw my shuttlecocks in the bin though.
Get back on with it and I look forward to seeing some more.
lets get one thing straight im am not attention seeking ok!.i was just letting my fans know i was still thinking about the m.a.r railway and them, and in the mean time i was waiting for planing permission to extend the railway to 4 X 7 foot which has been granted.
..anyone for tennis then!?.

Gosh. You got THAT Planning Application through fast ! I thought it was just WBC that took bungs to make sure "all went well" etc. C'mon Mike. What was it? A brown envelope job (extra house keeping) or a nice bunch of flowers !
Start on the work pronto, or it may lapse !!
Good to see your back on track,Mike!!
Mikes back!
Love the A to Z on the table - are you planning on extending into a town?
Where did you get that model of the Bedford OB from Mike? Rather good!
Could have used your A-Z

How about a sleeper train Mike!
Is that a proposition Becky? Lol
Jeez,could you not have chosen something furry Mike?
hi, o.m.g the picture below of the crew getting on the bus to go back to the layout yesterday, No body? noticed the blonde woman sitting in the front seat before the crew got on. IT was mrs shirley butty, AKA miss sue goodyear, AKA madame sue, AKA miss B.B.C, {bouncing bristol club} AKA MAD marthar tattyknickers, when she got on the bus before everyone else she placed a large pink holdall in the baggage hold of the bus and got back off the bus and unbeknown to the driver MR stan butler inside the bag was a T.N.D {thermo nuclear device} of approximately 1 KILO TON, and it detonated this sunday afternoon 31st/07/2011. at 1.30 p.m G.M.T .A m.a.r scientist said the radiation will last for at least 99 years, OH BUMMER..Well folks stay tuned to find out what happens?? to mike/ann BONZO/TINKERBELL, the ice-cream van and MAD marthar tattyknickers cheers mike...
well we got back from llandudno with BONZO and TINKERBELL we had a good time the pets had a good swim and feed and we made plenty of money with the ice cream sales. then we came back and we found the m.a.r transport police are looking for a woman called MAD marthar tattyknickers a friend of bert,s, what a bummer i thought she had gone away long ago i hope the police catch her soon?. So tonight we will be sleeping in the ice-cream van with the pet,s it will be a bit of a squeeze and the snoring from bonzo/tinkerbell/ann i dont think i,ll get much sleep?, we still have some rail and a small engine left at a store in another country as we were thinking about expanding there. cheers mike....
Keep up the good work Mike!
Mad Martha was last seen heading North with Dirty Girty, both tired up in the back of a odd looking vehicle driven by Pinz. He's taking them to his tenement hide out in the Gerbils, where he keeps them drugged up by making them sniff bluetac.
sounds like a sticky ending then bert..

well, ann and i bonz and tinks have made it through the last border control ok, But the poor old ice ice-cream van is finding it hard to climb these mountains sometimes we are down to driving at walking pace, so to save straining the van ann has bonz/tinks walking behind on their leads the only thing is its causing a few accidents because people are overtaking, see us turn the heads open their mouths say something looks like? WHAT THE FFFFFFUUUUUCCCCC, then forget they are on a "bend", then drive of the side of the mountain. But DONT WORRY they have that insurance ive seen on the television i think? its named after the capital of this country. Well we have stopped at a cafe now and as bonz and tinks were very very good they are having a treat a big round block of swiss chesse and chocolate yum, yum, oh life on the open road its great mountain views good clean fresh air! OH whats that smell? OH sh*t! tinks has done a big DUMP on the floor!, ANN where,s the tissues and shovel?,well we will set off soon after cleaning up and finishing off our drinks to the next border. take care everyone. ann i bonz and tinks X....

Keep up the good work Miketrain!
hello everyone, right we have gone through the last border control ok and we noticed this country sells a lot of pizzas and has spaghetti trees, i think bonz and tinks are licking their chops at thought of all the pizzas.There was a slight incident on the road after a few miles back we started to climb this long upward bending mountain road, we had gone a good few miles with the ice-cream van staining away slowly when i saw in the rear view mirror a red open topped FERRARI behind, there was a guy and girl both with sunglasses and all teeth posing in the car.Well he tried to overtake but as he did someone coming the other way made him get behind again, So this was going on for few miles so i think he got a bit inpatient because he started to blare his horn and screaming funny words and was revving his engine.well he was upsetting ann/bonz and tinks and im not having that! so i let him past on a bit of a straight road he blares his horn does a two finger salute and speeds off into the distance.WE drove some miles and were feeling a bit peckish when i spotted a pizza palour so we pulled in, as we got out i spy the the red FERRARI from before parked behind us a bit away. ann and i go inside and the couple are posing all teeth and gold charms and sun glasses and fake tan. i order a pizza for ann she has a ham and cheese and i have a chicken and sweetcorn and two nice big classes of cool coke with lots of ice,we have a nice meal but then the posing couple start talking to the waitress (a very nice girl who served us} like piece of rubbish and she,s very nearly in tears poor girl and the other customers are feeling a bit sorry for her as well.Anyway we finished our meal and we order two take way pizzas for bonz and tinks both cheese and tomato, so we feed the pets and we get back into the van and i reverse back a bit and then i PRESS the .RED. button by mistake and OH DEAR all the sh*t and bits falls into the red opened topped £180 thousand pound FERRARI!. And we drive off sharpish as we pass the windows of the pizza parlour everyone is clapping
and waitress blows us a kiss.Lets see if they can get the stains out of those seats??.! cheers ann i bonz and tinks X ...
Sounds like you're having a good time Mike, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, when i went to see Debbie the other day, to my horror the bounder and super cad Pinz was already there going up and down with Debbie on the fork lift truck, not sure of the correct description but i think they were forking, please hurry up home and sort them out.
Debbie merely enquired as to how the ram was raised. Me, being ever anxious to increase her knowledge, felt duly obliged to assist in her enquiries.
I thought it was the Foreman Ganger peeping at us from behind that pile of ballast ?? So it was yoooooooo !

Well done Mike, all i need now is a nice young lady to fit out with lingerie, you'd better get Pinz a hairy arsed sergeant major, don't want to leave him out.

Good work Mike.
who,s got a big ERR heads???? then. are they from bristol by any chance!?.
I had to get my hands on them, or the deal would have gone tits up !
One thing troubling me Mike, if Pinz can have a soldier outside his shop (even though he is wearing a frock) where's the girlie outside mine wearing a basque. Purely for advertising purposes you understand.
Good class of customers, Bert!! You should up the prices!
you need a lingerie window display Mike!!
Looks like a tough bit of steak he's trying to flatten there Mike.
"Tenderise" is the phrase Bert !!!!
Sparks on bare sandled feet! No goggles! Calling H&S...
When you get the young lady for my shop, Pinz can have his "Tenderise"
now now!, boy,s the management might put the rent up?! OR an early prison release for MAD marthar tattyknickers!!?.
Correct me if I'm wrong Mike but that looks like a rubber hammer, I've got one exactly the same.
here we have SGT pinz outside his shop nosing/waiting for next doors shop display to arrive soon?,
Spannerhead has got his eye on Tattyknickers!

Hey mike, how r u?
Was wondering when is tatty knickers due for release?
Mike you should open up a cafe!!
hi spannerhead, miss tatteyknickers is in clink for a while yet?, if your waiting for her? then you will have to wait in the Q behind bert. And yes tombraider a cafe is again on the build list as i try to start something i get sidetracked a bit,ive still got a few more idea,s yet sometime,s to many!.As i build the railway i also like to share with the people of {if interested ?} wirral and beyond a little bit of my family history, like septimus {blacksmith} my great uncle so some of the figures that will come onto the m.a.r railway have some meaning to me. Plus ive got to keep up the funny stories {no matter how mad they are} so we can all have a little chuckle .take care everyone thanks for reading my stories and words of encouragement god bless mike/ann X....
aw mike this is cute is it ur kids building this? how old r they?
me and my wife dont have any children so im building this m.a.r railway myself. Im a kid at heart anyway so i have an excuse to relive my youth as i build, and thinking/stories idea,s keeps the old brain cells working.
love the fact you using some real events & some family history.
oh thats great mike. what does MAR stand for?
do you make the models yourself or buy them?
Hey Spannerhead, keep your hands off my tattyknickers.
now, where is that number for the kneecapping blokes.
oh thats great mike. what does MAR stand for?
do you make the models yourself or buy them?
the words stand for .mike and ann,s railway. I buy some models and make others into something else? and make models from scratch.
Hey Spannerhead, keep your hands off my tattyknickers.
now, where is that number for the kneecapping blokes.
the number is 77799912121 and their big blokes!.
ok great got you sounds fun does ann help you?
what made you want to start a railway? where r the tracks from was it just a normal trainset to start with and you add your own bits?
i reckon you build some skyscrapers in there and make it like a track through the city and have king kong hanging off the buildings or something thatd be cool
Hi Mike! I hope you're not going to be putting the ticket prices up on your railway. All the other train companies seem to be. And how about a bus station so you could have a nice public transport interchange?
im afraid the main bus stop is outside the train station as with the layout being 1/24th scale there is not enough room for a bus terminus,unless i extend the railway another 5 feet at least? no can do, foot down planning officer!. And no the rail fares are not going up!, its only a £1.00 a journey cheap all day. I will be looking in the future for another bus a double decker?,
cheers mike.
If its t scale then u have some BFGs in there haha

Mike, can we please please please have a bit of devil worship? You could make a wicker man out of matches, put the copper in, have everyone dancing naked, then torch it! Would you think about it please? I can supply the sacrificial goat if need be and it would bring a bit of life to the town. Ooor failing that, could you tie a couple of virgins (are there any?) to the track and decapitate them. Please let me know if my ideas are viable? I look forward to hearing from you Mr train. PS I have plenty more ideas on how to liven the town up, man with chain saw, man with axe, man with flame thrower etc. Enjoy!

Listen here you 'orrible lot! Your Mother might love you but I DON'T!!! All this NAFFI chat about women with underware that won't pass muster, who congregate outside that infernal lingerie shop next door has got to stop !!

My final warning before Dirty Gertie heads south to "advise" you of the need for Fire Insurance !!!
I don't care if a certain female's knickers hang in festoons around her ankles,

hi
at the m.a.r railway today, the railway had an earthquake and all the building shook and in pinz,s army surplus shop he had some live grenade,s on a self, and one rolled off the shelf and the pin fell out and it exploded. AND this caused all the other grenade,s and shells in his shop to go bang and this caused bert,s lingerie shop to go bang as well scattering various bra,s, knickers,stockings, suspender belts,basque,s and strange magazines all over the site.Now as well the ground shaking it caused the door on the cage that mike and ann,s pets BONZO an TINKERBELL the croc,s were in to fly open and they started to eat the people. and then the m.a.r bus lost control hit the new fire station killing everyone, and a aeroplane flying overhead saw the fire and as the pilot was nearly blind he thought it was the runway. It landed right in the middle of the railway in a big crash, and a piece of plane hit the m.a.r ice-cream van sending lolly ice,s ,choc ice,s ,and 99,s all over the site.With all these explosion,s as well the tyre,s from the m.a.r tyre depot the tyre,s were bounching all over the place.Then MAD marthar tattyknickers escaped from prison through a hole in the cell wall, then a gorilla climbed into a steam engine and steamed off. Then a baboon monkey got in the police car ran over SGT pinz killing! him, then bert ran off with tina-wilkinson screws but because the two of them looked like shifty buggers i ran them down in my ferrari flattening the two of them dead.And then up in space a dirty big asteroid was heading towards the m.a.r railway, OH NO what next??? NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!.OH WOW i tell you what yewgarth them tablets you gave me are great thanks. Do you fancy another bottle bud, nice padded cells these!.

That's not nice i'm in tears and was picking out a nice little black number for the forthcoming funeral. Now I'll have to have a large gin to calm my nerves.
Listen here you 'orrible lot! Your Mother might love you but I DON'T!!! All this NAFFI chat about women with underware that won't pass muster, who congregate outside that infernal lingerie shop next door has got to stop !!
It's having a serious effect on my business. I've got 3 big crates of Pith Helmets and a pile of Bully Beef (Dated 1944) to flog.
My final warning before Dirty Gertie heads south to "advise" you of the need for Fire Insurance !!!
I don't care if a certain female's knickers hang in festoons around her ankles,
my punters are getting frightened off.
Well I was hoping so as I had chosen a nice little black number!
Maybe in heaven with Tatty Knickers Bert

tombraider NO!,,But believe me i tried to pass her off to bert? and pinz but they didn,t like her for some reason?, cant understand why? I will have to keep looking for you.
Bert and Pinz are getting greedy Mike lol:Hope miss tattyknickers breaks out off jail for spannerhead.
Norma looks a bit strange!

Just done a catch up, so I'm not dead then, some sort of Dallas dream you had, here's me thinking Pinz shouldn't have had those live grenades next to his life size dolls, Whoops shouldn't have said that, it will only attract Stuy and Polo Phil Stalin to his shop, maybe they'll call in and buy some fishnets off me.
Oh Bert what a dissapointment,so no funeral then? A waste getting my little black number dry cleaned.Never mind sure it wont be long before someone kicks the bucket,it's like 'Midsommer' at the m.a.r railway.
Are the fish nets for fishing or dressing in drag Mr Bert?

SORRY, no windows in the tunnel railway tunnels dont have windows, the vehicle,s are the right scale 1/24th the reason the vehicles look bigger than the trains is.They are narrow gauge which are smaller then standard gauge trains,and as for the animals getting up there i am putting a landscape back drop behind the tunnel with fields etc.
"LOOK LOOK!" up in the sky whats that??. OH nooooooooooo it,s that asteroid its coming back!!. ..the truth is out their!.. cheers mike..ann...x..
Jeez Mike,it's Spanner that was banned from Wiki!
No its not Mike, its Pepper_Head

HI,tombraider yes ann is still helping me, but didn,t do much yesterday you take care mike..ann..x..
Hows the train project Mike?
hi tombraider/everyone, no ive just not done any building this week as i was waiting for the results from the m.r.i scans i had over the last few weeks.Anyway i got the results yesterday and the good news is ive had no new strokes which i thought i was having, but the bad headaches and the tiredness etc i,am having is due to a 20p size hole left in {left side from the stroke in december} my brain. So a few more marbles gone. Ah well i will get back into the m.a.r railway building project and mad stories?soon and Ann helping me/putting up with me! she is the best!.
cheers mike..X..ann..X..
Take care mate, i dont post much on here but i really enjoy what you are doing. Keep it up and hope the recovery continues!
cheers PaulH/everyone,
mike..ann..x
Aw Mike so glad to hear your news well happy for you.
Say hello to Ann and you take care xx
Seems a great shame to sell it after all the work you put into it Mike. Not to mention the stuff you bought.
I'd better put a "Closing Down" notice in my shop window. No doubt next door will be selling some of their skimpy underware off cheap ? I'll pass the word on to Dirty Gertie. She can stock up on her 42DD bra's before it's too late !
Bloody hell Mike, I've just ordered 400 pairs of gussetless knickers and i don't want them left on my hands, well not while there still in the box, good luck on your new venture and if you feel the need to photograph gussetless knickers, you know where to come.

Why dont you put them on the Wikis For Sale section Bert!
why!! I love reading this blog, Bert, bezzymate, and yewgarth should tie themselves to the rails, can't let them dig this up for a Tesco's to be built there.
No Mike not on the for sale section mate, I said Bert should put them on the Wiki for sale section,What you think Mike?
its another asda!. Sorry ive disappointed a lot of people out there! i just cant concentrate any more on the project cheers mike.
Oh no Mike you giving up , you were doing so well.
Whats about Bert and Pinzs Shop!
Aw Mike change your mind alot off your mates on wikki love your project.
hope you are allright tho!
hi tombraider/everyone, on tuesday 20th this week i got my m.r.i scan results because ive been having these really bad headaches and bad dizzy spells and slurred speech attacks these past months.I thought i was having another stroke? but the consultant said NO your having these attacks because you have a 20p size hole in the left side brain!, nothing they can do about it just put up with it.SO with me having episodes of bad concentration etc, a smaller layout was easier for me. But if i dont sell? the m.a.r railway i will re,do the m.a.r but on a smaller size baseboard. So at the moment i,ll build bert,s and mandy,s gold mine for now.cheers take care everyone mike...an..x.
p.s sorry if ive repeated myself from wednesday . p.p.s that asteroid coming back to earth looks a bit dodgy?!.
We fully understand, Mike. Take it easy, but keep reasonably active, as I was told after a T.I.A. (mild stroke).
Bri
Aw Mike sorry to hear that you take it easy.
hows Bert going to sell all thease Knickers mike
Thanks bri445/tombraider/everyone, bert,s shop is still ok, bri i hope you have had a check up over your t.i.a? as you know its a warning! i didn,t get one!. anyway take care look after yourselves everyone cheers mike...ann..x..

HI, AS i was saying before a small craft landed from the asteroid as it went past earth, now a while back MAD marthar tattyknickers was held in prison and the aliens broke her out.Well at that time they gave her a raygun that shrunk underwear put she was eventually killed! by P.C jane catcher, using her own gun.AS the original marthar was on the alien craft they took a DNA sample and CLONED her,and when she found out her double was killed and the m.a.r railway was for sale! she wanted revenge!.SO the aliens gave her a set of super thunder/knickers! they are made out of a polyalloysynthetic material THEY are bullet proof , rocket proof , antitank proof ,they can change shape into any kind of knickers from passion killers to sexy one,s to lure the male victim ,skid proof , smelly proof ,water proof ,they can inflate up to 500 times bigger to crush a victim, she can fill with gas so she can float/swim or gas a victim to death. A very deadly woman! now whether she will visit old friends? bert or pinz i can never remember! which one was a friend to the old marthar i dont know?? we shall see!. The boffins at the m.a.r railway scientific institute are trying to find a way to counter a cure to destroy the the thunder knicker bandit!.cheers mike...ann..x..

Omg maybe she s heading for Pinz and Berts place Mike
maybe???.
hi, the 1/12th scale small layout im making for bert and mandy is based on 1/12th = 7 1/4 inch real gauge track. Still thinking of making a gold mine or maybe a quarry or ?????
take care everyone cheers mike...ann...x...
Hello everyone, in the few pictures below bert is saying HURRY UP mike make? us a TOILET QUICK!, were running out of trucks!.Mandy is standing by and the guy in the white coat represents ME in this 1/12th scale to keep an eye on things.
chow for now mike...ann..x..
HI, today ive managed to build the small baseboard for the 1/12th scale, 7 1/4" gauge layout and ive also made a new lighter smaller baseboard for the m.a.r railway in 1/24th scale 15" gauge layout. With both layouts being lighter and smaller makes it a bit easier for me to move about and concentrate on...OH last i heard was TWO jet fighters where scrambled from r.a.f anglesey to intercept an unknown bogie? flying over the wirral. On the radar screen the radar operator said it looks like a GIANT pair of knickers?.Wonder where she,s going?????!!.take care all mike...ann..x..
That is comming on good ,Mike keep on with this one!
Say Hello to Ann as well!
HI,
will do take care mike...ann..x...
Is Pinz and Bert still having a shop Mike!
hello, tombraider everyone, bert doesn,t have a shop this time he has a gold/coal/buttie/knicker {some kind of} mine???. As for pinz i,ll think of something? for him when i find a figure.Cheers for now mike...ann...x...
Hello folks, As it was a nice day i didn,t do much of the mine, me and ann walked up to oxton village. There is a small charity shop i managed to get another figure a ladder and a piece of stone wall all for the 1/12th scale mine, and i was,nt even looking for items. Ive just started to recycle the tunnels for the mine from the m.a.r railway. They will still be called ROBBO,S TUNNELS, like as before.cheers for now mike...ann..x..
Thats good name for you tunnel Mike,
looking forward to seeing your project on the go again x!
Tattyknickers could be hiding in there Mike lol!
Nice one mikey, keep'em comin'
Is that Victor Meldrew in the white cardy? I don't believe it!
Well yes and no, the figure its suppose to represent me { or a likeness of me an ugly bugger} in 1/12th scale,
Sorry to mistake you for Victor! But a BIG CLOSE UP would prove one way or the other!
HI, its ok bri445 your right it is dr wilson from a dr who series about the second world war, what i remember is the kid with the gas mask saying "are you my mummy"!. Dead scary! anyway i got the figure a while ago for a future project? he had a white dr coat on which ive cut down, HE is a good likeness of me no hair and miserable looking just need the glasses. cheers take care mike...ann...x..
OH sorry i will put the photo,s on tomorrow as ive not finished the loco yet.
mike..
nice one mike, how good is that aluminium eh, I'll see if deanie's got some more.
HI all, yes mart the aluminium is great! dead easy to work with and the results in the photo,s show it?.Thanks again i was looking through mine loco pictures on google yesterday to get some colour schemes, think ive got one. Take care everyone mike...ann...x..
The driver should be looking where he's going, not at the view!
Good though it is, across the Vale of Festiniog!
Nice work Mike. Exhaust pipe and chunky controller handle - must be a diesel-electric job!
As bri445 said, he's looking across the Vale of Ffestiniog and has just realised that The Grapes at Maentwrog are OPEN! Bloody thirsty work shunting mine cars around all day !!!
HI everyone, the vale of Ffestiniog is a very very nice place but this mine is in the vale of prenton, by the arno and only the view of a drink is the back of sainsburys for a can of coke {all mine drivers are tea-total}.And your right pinz its thirsty work building these engines ann ann put the kettle on please,i was thinking of sticking berts head in hot water or cutting it off and twisting it to face forward OUCH.
cheers mike...ann..x..
p.s i heard a nasty horrible blood curdling scream come out of the mine before???
i was thinking of sticking berts head in hot water or cutting it off and twisting it to face forward OUCH.
Off with his head!, I say!
I,ll get the craft knife out! bri,

Keep up the hard work!

£9.99 ?? Expensive. Only £5 for 2 pair in BHead market
I think it depends on what size snodvan.
Nope - One size fits all (it says on the lable) but I have my doubts about that
Just take one second to study the expression on the face of this...
He's just seen 'yer missus' with her pants down
Oh, and he's mega concerned about the size of her pleasure materials

Yes the extinguisher is for hot bum,s but it can also be used slighty to scare away any spider,s that lurk inside before you sit on the throne!. You know what i mean? arghhhhhhhhhhhhh/SCREAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMS A BLOODY 10 FOOT BIG SPIDER!!! AND WHEN YOU SEE IT IT,S THE SIZE OF A PIN HEAD!. HUH MEN big scardy cat,s.

IF I put echo newspaper sheets toilet paper in the t/box i would have strike on my hands!!,as health and safety would have a field day, the ink on the paper would get into the peoples blood stream through a certain backside membrane! { to put it delicately }Thank you DR kildare and i would have no workers to finish the railway! then what would i do?..
But while the Doctor is looking at the aforementioned area he can check the previous days cricket scores.

That's a great railway Mike. We went on that train and Mr Bezzy would only buy a 2nd class ticket for us, but told us to sit in 1st. Ticket collector came round , told us off and made us move to the 'cheap' seats!
I'm sure Bert will adjust her dress for her when she's in the Land Rover! She'd better be carefull of that gearstick !!!
Your worse than Bert,Pinz the ladys will need to watch you

What shade/type paint do you use for weathering? Do you thin it at all? It's going to look good when it's finished Mike. Keep up the good work.
HI pinz the paint i used on the landy was grey car primer which i got about 2 years ago found in the loft, also used a bit of a indelible ink pen, and the other paints i use on my models is acrilyic paints sometimes thinned down. Anyway LARA,s legs have been bent a bit better to fit on the mine loco,i stuck her in boiling water bent the legs then when i got the shape right under the cold tap and hey presto she ready to sit down {nice}.

Don't want to worry you unduly Mike but.... I could have sworn I glimpsed a Traffic Warden creeping out of the undergrowth towards the Land Rover. An evil glint in his eye and muttering "Tax Disc not displayed on correct side of windscreen" !!!
You'll need to make a scaled down parking ticket to put on the windscreen!
Lol Pinz, hope miss thunderpants isnt the passenger

IT was MAD martha thunder knickers?!. the police noticed an unexplained bogie hovering in the sky above the river mersey last night, so to save money sending the helicopter to look they sent the drone instead well thunder knickers saw it sort of LAUGHED! horribly then sucked into her horrible hole/knickers { the fiend } then she chewed it for a bit then spat it out!. It was just to much WIND for the poor small plastic drone { £49.99 NOT £13,000 AND made in hong kong from toys.r.us } and it hit the water never to be seen again!.And then MAD martha flew off towards new brighton with a big jet flame coming out of her arse at a frightening speed. A toys.r.us shop spokesperson said we are out of stock of the plastic drones and we are not getting any more now till christmas!.

Yes Mike it's a treat. Will you keep on doing this project for some years?
In Port Of Liverpool new part of Museum of Liverpool(Ground Floor RHS)they have a small model railway with a toy crane that picks up goods when you wind it up(has magnets) and the goods go in the trucks. Fun for both children and adults.
I also enjoyed seeing 'The Lion Engine' and sitting in compartment of The Overhead Railway Carriage.

Hi Mike & Ann. Thanks again for a nice evening hope to hear more of the major battle in wikiland just hope MAD martha tattynickers does,nt get them in a twist have great Christmas Grace & 00 9f.
WELL hello from wikiwood, picture the scene, Above the wirral tonight a guy in a red suit with reindeer flying across the night sky over the wirral delivering presents to all the children. There he,s is minding his own buisness flying along with christmas joy in his heart when closing in fast on his tail is an unidentified object!, OH NO its MAD martha tattyknickers!! she,s been hiding as a three car train sitting in a siding at bidston station waiting for the right moment to strike fear into the good people of wikiwirral!.MAD martha wanted to seek revenge for all the ill,s that has happened to her over this past year, so attacking santa was the right moment! well anyway there she is closing in fast on poor old santa! but luckly enough ruddolf the front boss reindeer spotted MAD martha tattyknickers and before she opened her machine guns he inflated his big red magic nose and the bullets bounced off!.And as she over shot santa MAD martha tattyknickers but she did not notice a small unidentified hand closing in fast on her!YES it was HANDY ANDY MK.1 come to save santa HURRAH!. Well ANDY let rip a short burst of machine gun bullets which caught MAD martha tattyknickers down the a seam of her knickers! good shot shouted santa thank goodness DR FRANKINSTINE sent you to help me!.MAD martha tattyknickers managed to pull herself together and fired a rocket into poor HANDY ANDY MK.1 and he spun off, then turned around again and started flying towards poor old santa and just as she was about to suck santa and the reindeers into her horrible hole SHE got a RIGHT GOOD SLAP on her left cheek from HANDY ANDY MK.1 who managed to regain himself after the nasty rocket attack! good job he had metal fingers!. Well MAD martha tattyknickers was knocked across the sky about 80 mile,s to be exact! with the equivalent force of a 1 ton slap from ANDY MK.1 HURRAH!.So santa and HANDY ANDY MK.1 flew side by side congratulating each other on a job well done WHEN a furious [ and i mean furious] MAD martha tattyknickers come screaming down on them both with all guns and rockets blazing!. What a palavour is this the END? for good old SANTA?! HELL NO! MAD martha tattyknickers misjudged the firing range and her bullets and rockets over shot and missed santa HURRAH!. And as MAD martha tattyknickers the alien frilly bandit flew underneath the sleigh and reindeers ruddolf and the other reindeers dropped their sh*t bombs and wee wee onto MAD martha! it went all in her hair and down her face and in her knickers [no way she will get these stains OUT] it bloody STUNK!.In the mean time HANDY ANDY MK.1 shot up towards outer space to so he could come back down with speed to give MAD martha the final killer slap but as he got into outer space his battery ran out [ it was a cheap one £1.00, from bargainland cut backs you see ]so HANDY ANDY MK.1 could not get back down to earth! he,s still up there waving! OH NO. Well as MAD martha wiped the sh*t from her eye,s and with rage she musted all her strength in one final swoop on poor old santa closing in fast and with the horrible hole opening up santa threw a christmas present into her horrible hole!, WELL what happened next she stopped suddenly sort of moaned and exploded into a thousand bits!. The christmas present santa threw into MAD martha was FULL of christmas joy, cheer, love ,happiness , goodness , peace all nice christmas things and with MAD martha tattyknickers being an evil madam it killed her stone dead HURRAH HURRAH HURRAH !!. AND happily santa will finish delivering all the childrens presents tonight!. A VERY VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE ON THE WIRRAL AND EVERYWHERE AND TO ALL A GOODNIGHT FROM MIKE X.X...ANN X.X...AND ALL THE GANG AT WIKIWOOD...

HI, Ive just been putting the flat roof between the apexes on the pub the...SIR WIKI KNIGHT ARMS...when the bloody landlord tells me he NOW! wants a FULL interior fitted inside
.OH well i will have to think
what style. Well down the hatch chers mike..x.
This is a amazing set up,Is this a hobby?
HI, Yes its a project i stated last year.
Landlady called Mrs Booze,Love it Haha.
Hello everyone,
...STOP PRESS...
Down at the SIR wiki knight pub last night the wiki police
where called to a disturbance!?. A customer a MR DRINKITT told the officers PC KATCHIM and WPC KATCHER who attended, he was assaulted by the landlady MRS BOOSE with her 12" yellow RUBBER TRUNCHEON! for not drinking fast enough at last orders HE said! he heard a funny BUZZING sound then felt a BANG to the back of the head which caused him to see stars and flake out. But when the police officers
questioned her she said MR DRINKITT was drinking a new beer they had just put on tap called BUCK-A-ROO and it was probably that? which gave him a kick to his head at 70% alcohol volume IT probably WOULD?!. So with no witnesses at the bar and the few people who where left also nursing bangs to their heads! NO further action was taken against MRS BOOZE. Cheers for noooo..x.
OK, it was all going so well, reading through pages and pages of this. Until I got to the bit about the cop car being broken and cotton wool for smoke. This was the point I lost it... spat coffee all over my laptop. Pure genius.
I salute you.
i can only load 2 picture at time..
last one im having problems with pictures ...
This looks amazing, well done.
Love it Great work mike, wish i had the patience.
thanks beehive...but my patience has been tested a few time,s.
two more..x.
the other kids ride.cheers mike.
HI again, Ive just completed the wiki overhead line!, it joined up tonight at aprox 8.30 pm BUT there was no wiki newspaper press to record it they where all in MRS BOOZES pub the wiki knight chucking it down their necks (the drunken barstwards). cheers for now HIC! miiikee...
thanks for this dave, cheers mike.
wikiwood overhead railway..
Merry Christmas to you too, Mike and Ann.
Wikitowns looking great mike, merry chistmas to you and your wife Ann.

steam beam house.
small diesel loco Getting rid of the rubble to get to the RICH T bag SEAM.
Hi, Right ive had to make a steam loco to take the T bags from the mine so i got a cheap HO scale train set from ama*on and built a steam loco body to fit over the HO engine.
more pictures.

should have been on blue peter buddy, tracy islands got nothing on this
HI everyone, I have managed to finish the IRON DUKE loco for the T.bag mine.
x
This is the coal tender to go with the iron duke loco.
the beam house on top of mine.
Hello everyone, here is a bit more for the "T bag mine" ive laid the track for the "sugar mine" factory plant next door to the "T bag mine". Ive made a battery loco to take the sugar in and out just got to make the wagons to go behind it.
X.
start of the sugar plant.
Keep up the great work Mike
i just noticed you have other projects going also.well done mike . A great wiki topic keep it going.
Hello everyone, Well i hope to spray the sugar silos silver today for the sugar mine. Cheers for now take care all mike...x.
It's all looking good Mike. What is the material that you have used for the walls on the building with the green corrugated roof?
I hope the tea bag mine keeps in production. They are shipping thousands of tons of tea bags over from the massive Chinese and Columbian mines at a fraction of cost of what we can mine them for in the UK. A sad, sad world! Opencast tea quarrying next ????
Keep up the good work.
HI Pinz, good to hear from you hope your well,now the walls of the pump house is foam board and ive sprayed it with my favourite plasti-kote stone paint. Bloody foreign tea (it tastes like muck and also makes you light headed) thats why MR brew has decided to take on the competition by his own mines and also the sugar giants and milk bosses, But at the moment MR chuff has stolen three of MR brews points/switchers for his garden layout so the track laying for the mines has grind to a halt.
cheers for now mike.
Mike you may be intrested in this Model Railway Exhibition

Hi everyone, My wife,s (late) uncle doug is on the station platform looking at the new lights that have just been fitted while waiting for the train.

Super Mike well done
I like the counterbalance for the water crane. I hope the water in West Kirby isn't too hard for the boiler! Scaled up water tubes will spoil your performance.

Hi pinz, yes ive used real stone,s in a crate just like they did in the old west. I also used the last little bits of roofing felt left over from the WIKI KIRBY station job. As for the water quality here in west kirby ? i think its hard water? (so ive been told by the local natives). Eh if it blocks up me tubes eh i will tie a brush on a rope and pull it like hell through me tubes OW (painful)
bloody trains!!.
Hi all, Well WIKI WIRBY station has had a new platform, but some dirty sod missed the 3:15 pm to birkenhead. The same dirty person also missed the toilet while trying to pull up their knickers or underpants??

Hi everyone, Well the mess has been cleaned up

Everybody knows the U.K transport system shuts down in the Winter. Wrong type of snow, innit Mike
Benny Bones is not real you know? You do know this, right???
Just thought I would say hello Mike, hope you and Anne are well as we haven't heard from you for a while. X
Hi Dilly everyone, Sorry ive not been in touch for a while
but i have had to give the Wiki Wirral garden railway up!
. As even five years down the line after my stoke i now find that i have a paralyzed left chest diaphragm and the right one is not too good and i can not bend down to do the garden railway anymore. Last year it took all that time to get to some sort of railway line up and running plus it made me so tied. BUT im not giving up just yet SO ive changed scale to double OO gauge instead
, so over the last few months i have been collecting OO gauge items i even managed to swop the garden gauge stuff for a decent amount of double OO items PLUS cash (thanks paul new brighton model shop)
. So this OO track is going out of the shed on planks of wood 3 feet of the ground (so no bending plus lighter rolling stock etc to pick up) then around the garden then back in the other side of the shed !
So thats whats is going on at the moment. Take care all see you soon X
Hi Mike. Sorry to hear you've not been so good. It's a good thing you've made to decision to throttle back a bit. Take it easy!
Working with 00 should make life a little easier, whilst still giving the same pleasure.
Keep us up to speed on developments! Take care.
Yes you take care Mike and keep in touch. Thanks for all your hard work in the past. Take care mate. Best wishes Dilly.
Your some fella mike, keep up the fantastic work xx
Mike, So sorry your garden project has been curtailed but I am sure you will soon be putting pictures of your new venture on Wiki. We look forward to them and trust you are feeling better now.
First stop, Wellington Garden City . Choo choo
A big thank you
to Pinz..Dilly..lollipop and ALL for understanding. I will have to find some mad staff
to run this smaller Wiki wirral scale railway in the garden, then it will have "A murder in the shrubs" or "Death in the nettles" i think there was a john nettles in some program on the T.V ? X.
Great that you aren't giving up, it will be so much better for you when it is off the ground. Looking forward to seeing the results, thanks for all your posts.
Admire your tenacity Mike! Keep going and look forward to seeing the results!
So glad you are still going to share your hobby with us Mike.
You were truly missed x.
Great stuff Mike we all love it. Take good care of yourself. x
Hi Mike.
Is that Sir Nigel Gresley on the shelf next to the Blood & Custard carraige ? Hornby Dublo ??
I may have some more lengths of Peco track after a clear out. Not new, but will be ideal for sidings etc. Maybe let me know when you have a minute.
It's looking good Mike. I suspect the baby is a bit prem !!
Take it easy !
Hi Pinz, Sent you a P.M cheers mike.
That's a Mallard Pinz, not a Sir Nigel Gresley. The guard over the front bogie is different on the Mallard, it covers the whole of the 4 wheels, where the one on the Sir Nigel Gresley is sort of split :-)
Sir Nigel Gresley
OOOOPS
I got it wrong its the MALLARD i didn,t look at the magazine properly or the model!.
we will still love you Mike :-)
Hi Mike, just thought I would say hello as we haven't seen you for a while. Hope all is good with you both. X

Hopefully we will all see mike back with us soon Dilly, now that the better weather is here.
And forgot to mention Sonylegs,hope he is ok also.
Hi Snowhite, I`m still alive, just don't get on with certain people, my sister and others fell out with the same person, so they no longer come here. We cant all get on in life with everyone, and that will never change. But always look on the brighter side of life :-)
Sorry to hear that Sonylegs.
As long as we know you are keeping well.
Thats what say Sony.Always look on the bright side of life.
Do pop on funny pics now and again as well all ask about you on there.
Hi Mike, well it's been a good while now since we have heard from you. Hope all is well with you both. Best wishes Dilly x
I do hope all is well with Mike and his Mrs. I often wonder how he is. Come back Mike you are missed.
Yeah, miss the updates on his little kingdom!!!
Sorry to bump such an old thread but loving the pictures propel are uploading of their layouts and modified engines, especially those earlier ones with the largely oversized cabs...
If you do get a chance feel free to check out my channel YouTube.com/trainmania100 where I periodically upload videos of my layout. I have a few triang dock shunters, switchers and some modern stuff as well. It's not very scenic because I don't have time to do a lovely miniature world but it keeps me busy nonetheless
