      John, Ray, and Paul, Never Forgotten.

      Also remembering, especially today, all the others killed or injured in this awful tragedy, especially Emma who still works on-board.

    Just checked through the Bachmann web site for "Royal Mail stowage vans. The early royal mail livery is not listed. As the liveries shown are too late for my time period

      I've asked them about this previously at shows;these vans apparently came out after Blue Grey was adopted

    The long summer must have got to some folks. There seems to be a rash of people removing their posts/photos just because someone has posetd a contradictory comment.

      Posts edited / deleted for 'inappropriate content' and to get back on topip then thread locked - there'd be nothing left on this forum at that rate!

      And if those concerned want to be pendantic then what was a 'run-away' train thread doing under 'Industrial MODELLING' to start with?

      Few years ago now(GNER?) about mid-day in Glasgow Central, chatting to guard in train, when saw a fox departing the next platform, along the track, and then followed by his mate...

      It was Scotland on a New Year's Day though!
