The new Hornby sound and non-sound decoders will come in a range of pin variants - wait for the 2023 range launch for full details of spec and prices, etc.

My pre-order finger is twitching.

A couple of American Railroad books arrived from 'Santa'. Battles in the boardroom galore! (Good to know I am out of all that now.)

Finally arrived!

Very nice. But what are they? I am guessing they have something to do with weight. Of even more interest to me is the back drop of low relief buildings, it is hard to tell, but is that cardstock? The window glazing makes it vivid. Also, the ground work is convincing.

They are rectangular tanks Chops. Usually to carry heavy liquids like tar. Less likely to split the tank when sloshing about.

BP tank wagon from Brian1951. Many thanks Brian.

I made a few of those Brian, there were not produced by Dapol only the parts.

Well you made a good job of it. Added a few bits (that you sent me) plus the large BP transfers.

All these wagons you will have a train long enough to meet the loco pulling them soon.
