Thanks Ade, Yes that article was written and submitted last November, long before any thoughts of moving the Fuel Pumps came along, and so quite a bit has happened since then, and will again very soon I hope.

Right Andy, here's a comment.

 

You are doing a great job at advertising SMS and Bench Road and it would surprise me if you have no "takers" who'd like a "Bodgit Original". Bit like buying a Banksy, but cheaper!

 

Good luck with the sale.

 Those two gents better be headed for the locomotive and not that car as I do not think they will fit in that car either!

Not sure I could ever be compared to Banksy, but the compliment was a nice one Jeff, cheers for that. 

 

As for being Bodgit original, well that might not be the best advertising campaign slogan I've ever heard either, but I do have some interest, whether it will result in a sale or not remains to be seen.

I have a visitor on Monday morning, in the form of Stu / @Stubby47  coming all the way from wonderful Cornwall just to view the Layout, :o not a special journey, but he will be just down the road anyway and I hasten to add, not with the intent on buying it, :scratchhead:but just as a RM Webber who is in the area and has asked to meet up and put faces to names, which I think is so important, so I'm really looking forward to that.

 

Then on Tuesday evening I have 4 or 5 Visitors, so the POD will get a little crowded, I have Scott @pitbull1845 Kevin @Hampshire Hog Paul, @PaulRhB and Mike @scoobyra plus maybe Ian @Temeraireand any other waifs and strays they pick up along the Road on their way here.

 

I may need to do a Sales pitch on them.:D

Yes, I agree, they do look a little chubby compared to the Car.

Have to say I'm really looking forward to seeing the Pod and whatever layout you've made this last week :)

Im not sure this is an authentic claim!

 

As long-term fans will know, the only bit of this layout that has not been rebuilt 3 times is the station you've never used :)

 

Ps I still think you should keep some sort of momento of the layout as a fond reminder. That bubble car that never was?

Or re build it as a Mail Depot and just have a fleet of Red 128 Parcels going in and out.
