  1. Anybody know what’s pulling 1Z37 this morning? Might have been a 47 but the sound was inconclusive.

  2. In DCC terms; the Heljan Class 14 has a problem for every solution...

  3. Plenty of inspiration at Railex NE today. Quality show and South Pelaw Junc, Blackgill and Fencehouses took most of my viewing time up. Overall layout standard superb; it seems unfair to choose a favourite from a whole field of winners but SPJ gets my ‘Best in Show’. Well earned.

      Hi Dave, sorry we missed you. I agree with your surmise on the best in show but it was hard to choose. See you sometime.

  7. Fifty years ago today, sentence was passed and a great injustice inflicted little more than six months later. Partly righted, I hope to live to see honour restored.

      How about a centre car for the Thumper?

      I too await the centre car but what's the betting when it becomes available it will only be as part of a three-car set.

      Seeing as I don't own an any-car set right now that's probably academic...

  13. I do love a Western SMT bus...
