  4. Is that a floating bridge or a concert venue? A WIG that doesn't fit?... I'll see myself out...
  5. Or have a nighttime lighting setting and go full O. Winston Link....
  6. It came on the back of a Faller lorry with a HIAB.... Is a specific season being targeted here or just a 'North China plain' look?

Allegedly, a benefit of the Baltimore 'Key' bridge being a toll bridge turned out to be that when the mayday went out at about 0120ishLT, the toll barrier operators were able to stop vehicles crossing the bridge before the ship hit the structure at 0130ishLT.

If you ever find yourself wondering what to do next when in Lisbon (PT), an interesting couple of hours can be spent in the Museu de Marinha for which the queue and entrance fee are considerably smaller than for the Jerónimos Monastery (same building). The models pictured are 1:20 scale but there are several other galleries of models of various sizes and scales including naval, commercial and fisheries vessels. The museum cafe also does a nice line in the local Pastéis de Nata from the original shop - but, again, without the queue of tourists...
  12. So what you're sayin' is that a BR Standard 4MT is your Weapon of Choice ?....
  13. Maybe they should try putting the telescope towards their good eye... From the NYT article referenced by Zerohedge - Unfortunately it may take more of the following in the coming years for something to be done.
