KNP Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 I’m happy to go to my room. It will of course be the railway room (bed 4), so no hardship there then!!!! Perhaps while I’m in there I will make a new staff and fix the flag to it.....? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the above picture she does not carry a Red Ensign!!! I think I need to fit one. Do you agree? In that case shouldn’t she have her port of registration on the stern as well?

A question Kevin:- Noticing the toad in the above pic is verandah inwards, do you have all your toads facing the same way, or 50/50 in each direction, and why?

Cheers Paul Good question. No the Toads do vary, in some instances the stay the same if I have a rear lamp already in place. In this particular case the Toad came out the storage box this way round so that is how it ended up pointing in the direction it is. No rear lamp fitted as I realised the plastic bracket is a solid lump and needs replacing with a brass one, so the lamp wasn't fitted (another task for the list of jobs!!). It is my understanding that they can point in either direction depending how they where sitting the yard when coupled up. I am sure someone will put me right if I have got that wrong. You can always learn new things.... 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
