Met this fella in a field next to where I was working.

RES liveried 47 would do very nicely for me. Suppose it would be too much to ask to get a PCV to go with it? Maybe one day!

Very sad indeed but I’d also say he’s done quite well to reach that age given the life he has led. RIP.

I’ve just taken delivery of four of these and have to say I really like them. I particularly like the packaging of the triple pack. I plan on running these with 3 MK1 blue and grey coaches. What would be an acceptable general formation? All SK’s? BSK and 2 SK’s? Thanks.

Having grown up in Blyth I will be following this thread with interest. One thing I was wanting to find out was about types of coaching stock and formations of trains hauled by the G5’s. Most pictures I’ve seen are two or three coach rakes, I’m guessing the closest thing RTR would be the Hornby Gresley suburbans by Hornby? Apologies for the thread hijack but though it would be relevant.

Took this while out for a walk on holiday which I’m lead to believe is a Scotch Argus. Not bad for a phone photo.

Had a very pleasant holiday in the highlands again this year. We scaled Ben Hiant on the Ardnamurchan peninsula, our two cocker spaniels, Brian and Toby, enjoyed it. Also had a wander round the oak woods at Strontian and climbed up the hill to get a nice view of Loch Sunart. What a holiday.

Caught sight of this little chap while I was inspecting the planter at the front of my house tonight. House mouse?

Hi all, I’m after a pair of commonwealth bogies for a Super GUV. The model I have is a Hornby model but I believe it to be derived from a Lima model so both should fit? TIA

People are still too busy staring at them no doubt! Mine has been delivered today, can’t wait to get home and see it!

RES livery 47 would be lovely.

Only just recently discovered the Silversun Pickups, absolutely love this song and love this live version.

Was passing through Fort William yesterday and saw this…..

I was walking in Dundeugh Forest near Loch Ken today and came across a slow worm for the first time. Amazing looking things!

Where can I preorder these wagons? Every time I click on the shop page on the website it just says “no products found”?
