JoeP Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 According to the paper Hornby are going to rescue them. Would be nice if they did. If they don't I'll have to dig out my battery of 1/72 25 pdr guns and arrange for a salute to be fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saxon51 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 The wheels on mine never turned, and my mum ran out of table cloths that didn't have glue on them.
