Twokidsnosleep gave this the OK for the Southampton Dock (heavy lifter) build so I may go for it - even though it's only part of a heavy lifter.

Well it’s heavy and it certainly lifts, so...... :think:

That particular GB also doesn’t start until May first
Desert is the first GB Feb 1- April 30

I know, but I'm needy so I put this up for moral support.

What a brilliant idea.

I never thought of anything spacey but of course, this is a perfect choice. Bravo Sir. Cannot wait to see it.

Don't have one of those and I'v bought way too many kits lately. A fellow modeler has been selling part of his stash at half retail so that has been extremely tempting and I'v been extremely weak. Now getting from Perth to here has been a problem as the guy wouldn't post at the time, but was kind enough to let me leave them there until I could arrange pick up. Well that began about 4 weeks ago and he is still selling stuff off usually about 4 a day.

I don't really want to start that until my skills are a bit better and it's likely going to take me 6 months to build that as I'v accumulated all the 4 sets of Pe for it too. Still looking for a engine driver. Could do a 80t rail car
