James That there legend at PPS IndianaRog Nice Name Tags James...really a great finishing touch for Poppy. James Ta Rog! Now I wan't to change it's name James Ta Rog! Now I wan't to change it's name James BTW, I stuck them on with Loctite IndianaRog Ahhhh, the time to change names is BEFORE you buy the name tag and most definitely BEFORE you LocTite it on Unfortunately you will make a mess of the finish if you try to pry the Poppy tag off. What's wrong with Poppy, I kind of thought that was a fine name. James It's alrate, but it is o'er lass like don't ya think? Wallace Looks top qual there James You want to change the name cos it's too "girly"? I'd leave it as, I think it the name suits it. You could always buy another Loco and name it after your Girlfriend James Wallace wrote: Looks top qual there James You want to change the name cos it's too "girly"?

James And a different name on the tender I'm on with getting a tender made by a mate, so I might have it done soon!! Wallace LOL A tender for it would look great. Do you have track for it? IndianaRog Name plates for the lasses Here's the solution James...get little magnetic names for each of your girlfriends, then when they visit you can impress them by having a loco conveniently named for them. Change them for the next lass and the next....etc. I'm sure you get the idea.

So I used that and they haven't fallen off yet. Also should be easy to remove without messing up the paint if I want to. Mamodman123 Less perminant than a tatoo Jimbo! Looks great! Girly name? well Rosa is girly too! but she's a mans loco James I don't do things by half I don't lad! LMFAO Rog You're too smooth steamyman James, that nameboard looks good. does PPS have a website? steamyjim yes www.pps-steam-models.co.uk Chris http://www.pps-steam-models.co.uk/ Listed under "Accessories / General". You can't order from the website, so phone him up. When I got my nameplates he asked for payment in stamps. steamyman steamyjim wrote: yes www.pps-steam-models.co.uk thanks steamyjim. steamyjim hes my local live steam/garden rail dealer. he lives about 20 minutes away James Same here!! He asked for payment in stamps Mamodman123 James wrote: Same here!! He asked for payment in stamps what the? James That's what I said! I were like o...k Chris He has to pay when people use bank cards, and he said he uses lots of stamps. No real hassle, just got my wife to pick a load up next time she went to the post office. Just hope he doesn't want payment in stamps when I get around to ordering a regulator, some more nameplates and possibly some piston/cylinders.

He seemed to take my cheques ok so maybe you could use that as payment? steamyjim i wont order from him by post. much easier to go for a drive. then i can look at the rest of the stuff and maybe even use some of my locos on his test track        The Unofficial Mamod and Other Steam Forum Forum Index -> Locomotives Page 1 of 1
