  1. Sorry, I should have said post-war.
  2. It is also limited to BR era layouts only; anyone like myself who is more interested in grouping or pre-grouping isn't going to want one.
  3. I can imagine the furore if you do get a retooled Saint, but with those horrible oversize working lights! Aaargh.
  4. Yes - Mithras, and Sol Invictus, might be others too...
  5. I am really surprised they haven't done the Great Bear already. That and the Raven pacifics would make great additions to any collector's glazed cabinet. Let's see now, what else seems to be missing? A real beast like the U1 Garrett perhaps, a P1 maybe, there really doesn't seem that many options other than the more exotically liveried pre grouping types. We'll find out sooner or later.
  6. You are all forgetting the Caravan Train one, filmed on the Great Central if I remember right! Hilarious.
  7. I always liked the opened door jokes: COQ JOLI YOGURT AUX FRUITS - COQ YOGURT RESTAURANT PETIT ENTREE - ANT TIT TREE AMERDEA DU FROMAGE - MERDE DU FROMAGE SOPHARTEL INDUSTRIE - PHART INDUSTRIE C'EST LES BIEN CHAT - LES BIEN HAT All very infantile, but made us all laugh. There were others I recall.
  8. I think hell would freeze over before anyone does you one of those (though I would join you in rejoicing if they did).
  9. You swine, you have got me singing that now! 😄
  10. Had to smile, I've got one of those too. Haven't most of us? I have started to look through mine, and begun dividing them into those with a good chance of getting built, and those which I fear never will, with a view to selling them on, but oh, isn't it so hard to actually part with anything!
  11. I'm sure this must have been posted before...
  12. Enjoyed a fantastically relaxing sunny afternoon at the Ryedale Society of Model Engineers' Main Line Rally. Amazing live steam action!

      A place I know very well, as I went to the school across the valley and so spent many happy Sunday afternoons down at the railway. Must get back up there at some point!

  13. What's the difference between a cock-eyed gamekeeper, and a constipated owl? One shoots but can't hit...
