During the interview Paul said that he gets a nosebleed if he "goes north of Bromley". Being Irish we didnt know where Bromley was at the time. We assumed it was a Glaswegian suburb. Then we went on Google maps.... Edited October 19, 2020 by Accurascale Fran 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cannot or should that be cannae see his face, he may have a tissue in one hand against his nostril and a camera in the other. If he kept going in a straight line south from Bromley, eventually he would arrive back at Bromley but have seen many exotic and less than exotic locations and trains on the way. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my 1868 Railway Atlas, anything north of the Medway is marked with "here be sea monsters", apart from the kingdom of Hertfordshire (which is obviously the centre of the known universe). Does that mean I need a bigger fuel tank for my Model T Fran? 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbox321 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Hi Paul at the moment I would not bother increasing the fuel capacity - How Covid is going - they will be building a Wall along the M4! Best Wishes, C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you notice the beam and shoe attached to his leg that sparked when he walked into the interview room over the door gap. You can get him to Watford junction, but no traction north, so you will need to convince him he's on a mystery tour of third rails. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted October 19, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 19, 2020 Looks like a little used siding with well maintained, or freshly laid track. Obviously not Stewarts Lane.. those pullman folk would have the bolts aligned at right angles, symmetrically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track on the pic above looks a little overgrown, wonder if Paul's been to Sellindge crawling over something Bulleid ...... something electric....... something with two decks (ok, one and a half)......whose designer then decamped to Ireland......

Some of us might think the steamies market could do with the shaking up that Accurascale has provided to the diesel and electric markets... 2 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
