Re: Boxes in the loft. I have logged all of my stock ( on the layout ) and boxes (in the loft) in a simple piece of software called Model Train Catalogue. Thus when the time comes my executors have a fighting chance to match them up

THanks we are going to Cologne for the Christmas Markets ans i am going to be given some time on my own for good behaviour

I shall be making creative use of the Channel Tunnel to allow one onto my European layout. (Well I already have an APT-E and Tornado + Pullmans).

Seeking a book I am Looking for a copy of “Lesser Railways of the Yorkshire Dales” if anyone has a copy going at a sensible price

Just looking on the Linda Tinker books website which says “.........HOWEVER, AT THE MOMENT, WE ARE UNLIKELY TO BUY ANY UK RAILWAY BOOKS, due to our shelves being full, and due to the glut of these titles reaching the market. In 2016, we had well over 300 requests to buy books, and only bought 12 collections. “

I follow this railway book group on facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/927155074023912/ and i have to say that,apart from one sale of a reasonably rare book it has been disappointing for me. I agree with post #2 about bottom dropping,

Not to mention blurred!

That’s the joy of art, so many different but equally valid views. I really like his railway based sketches which are not photograpic in any way, imhave a number of his signed prints but have never been able to afford an original! Sadly i feel that prints, however good, never capture the feel fo an original such as “Oil, Muck and Sunlight”

Agreed, it’s a “taking the Micky” tax of about £55 if you compare it with a certain well known Liverpool based emporium!
