  1. Doesn't actually relate directly to that thread. The video specifically mentions complaints about the bulkhead flat cars (which they use in the video) arriving to customers damaged. As for Michael Goss it probably makes more sense if your American or Canadian - he was on a hit TV show called Family Ties during the 80s which also launched the career of Michael J. Fox. Michael Goss participates in at least one model railway mailing list.

  4. The Model Rail prototype photo in the post above of the Adams T3 was taken in Toronto at the former CPR John Street roundhouse from the visit in 2011 for a production of The Railway Children. And of course Rapido world headquarters is just north of Toronto in Markham for those who like conspiracies.
  5. The second March video is out and is different - covers an overview of the work being done regarding the cliff faces between tunnels
  6. While that would generally be the case, there are exceptions. Example - Brampton Ontario CPR station where the freight shed was on the opposite side of the tracks from the passenger station.

  11. Scotrail's numbers are roughly comparable to Southeastern and South Western. If much of Scotrail's numbers are from Glasgow/Edinburgh commuting then maybe they are as out of line as it would appear given they have similar numbers to the former NSE area operations.
