I'm happy with whatever I buy and run, that's what our hobby is all about. While there are models out there I won't buy, doesn't mean I really detest them. I'm just not keen on the design. Of course, I don't like stinky diesels, however I might reintroduce Mr. DMU, who would be welcome on my model railways. Adi, what matters to us most is whether or not you enjoy playing with trains. Don't let any nay-sayers stand in your way. We care about you having fun and playing trains. I'm looking forward to the video idea I suggested you create. I'm intrigued about the twist you've put to it, and I know you're not gonna tell me, because it's a surprise. Adi, the best thing that ever happened to us is having you as our friend.
I'm happy to run both types. My Great Western carriages are shorter which has advantages on a smaller layout like mine. The Railroad models have certain compromises which is what makes them affordable. I'm happy if they look the part. I appreciate the higher detailed models and the work put into their design. This makes them worth the high prices. I say run whatever you like and just enjoy the hobby. Those who buy the affordable items should not be made to feel lesser in some way. I might run my Black Prince along with my Railroad Evening Star in a future video. Thanks for raising this topic of conversation. Regards Paul.
Hi Paul I hope you are well Yes it a video ive been working on for a while Yes am like you ill happy run freelance. Am sorry if I got any thing wrong Thank you for the kind words and watching and commenting on this video Keep safe ARP
Hi Adi, Well I did not even know about this so thanks so much for the education and I am with you its our railway we can run whatever we want and as long a you/we are happy then all the others can keep there complants to themselves. I hope you get a few views on this so that others may learn. Cheers Robert.

Lest it assists, the Diagram Number simply relates to the specific design of (say) a wagon or coach. For example in terms of Mk1 coaches (of which most people know) there are the following and can be researched via their Diagram number - here are some of the most common examples: BSK (Corridor Brake Second) were mostly Diag.181. CK (Corridor Composite) were mostly to Diag.128 SK (Corridor Second) were to Diag.146 and 147. BG (Corridor Full Brake) were to Diag.711 BS (Non-corridoe Brake Second) were to Diag.372 C (Non-corridor Composite) were to Diag.312 S (Non-corridor Second) were to Diag.327 By comparison, Pullman cars had Schedule numbers unique to each car regardles of its painted name (which sometimes got changed). Sch.175 'Fingall' _(as on the Bluebell Railway)_ Sch.213 'Minerva' Sch.250 'New Century Bar' (Originally 'Octavia', then 'Trianon Bar' and subsequently 'Daffodil Bar').
Hi mate I hope you are well This post is not deleted Again it gone over my heard i dont think my brain damage help better. But thank you for the information. Keep safe ARP
@@AdiPullen Trying thinking of Diagram Numbers in terms of say, Motor cars and their models. If the basic 'coach' is say a Morris, the the equivalent to Diagram numbers would be the Minor and Marina and Oxford... Does this assist? Once grasped, Diagram Numbers are all actually quite straightforward.
Personally I have no interest in freelance models when compared than those to a specific design. Some could even argue the difference might being toys and models. Except such an arguement then blurs the line with (say) credible but inaccurate models of the real thing.... Ultimately the decision falls to the indivdualy modeller and what they want to see on their layout - Their layout - Their choice. _Nothwithstanding, part of that decision is taked based upon what the indivdual modeller is seeking to achieve and create; sometimes this choice is simply based on the realities of price._
Hi mate I hope you are Yes this video was just to see if they room for both in hobby or like rapido did which was gunpowder van in other not correct for model So secr 7 plank with a cr livery on or the new 10 ton lnwr van in sr livery.

@@AdiPullen The hobby is so diverse that yest there most certainly is room for both and the hobby most certainly needs both. For example Hornby has recognised there is a market for less detailed models with its 'Railroad' range. Many modellers are simply seeking to enjoy their hobby and want interesting a diverse models on the layout; often with a vibrant mix of stock. By comparison, firms such as Rapido are aiming for the more specialist end of the market with grreater accuracy in thier models. Conversely there are collectors of models who want diversity then there are the 'fun' models such as the Dad's Army themed wagons which look really nice - even a friend and dedicated 1940s Southern modeller has been tempted.....
@@AdiPullen Sometimes with a little dedicated work the cheaper models can be dramatically transformed. For example I've a number of Lima bogie ballast hoppers that now look dramtically different!

@@ewhurstgreen no no i understand it.
I was just asking is they room for both.
China are doing a base on models of cars i believe
Tried to post an informative reply explaining Diagram Numbers for wagons and coaches but TH-cam has delected it.
Hi still here the post
@@AdiPullen Interesting as it had dissapeared for quite a while!
@@ewhurstgreen it does that when i used to do history on people loco from them
Could be a issues with TH-cam
