Not sure if this post is for me but I'll answer Thanks, Most where at the side of me and all the arty farty photographers had gone on the other side... and pendo 119 did the right honourable boul and completely blocked them all, I did feel sorry for one guy who had been waiting all day and I did say to him a pendolino was due. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted February 21, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 21, 2014 Are the Colas 70's initially going to be based in the south? Working NDS trains to/from Westbury for example? Cheers, Mick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkie_pudd Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I prefer them banns shape! banana split comes to mind for some mad reason - will one split in two ? was also trying to think which type of freight would blend well with a 70, example BigJim with 56 on the sinfins looks right, but the odd cab shape of 70`s slips past me on that one.

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted February 22, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 22, 2014 thats what i'm led to believe, i have heard rumours that they will trial one on the logs too Here's hoping that it's the Carlisle logs and they send it via the S&C (which seems to be too tough for a 56 to cope with................. ) Cheers, Mick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Welly Posted February 22, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 22, 2014 Ahhhh! The 70s looks horrible but their 4 stroke engines idling sounds MUCH nicer than the the minging car alarm like yinging that the 66s have! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfsup Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Ahhhh! The 70s looks horrible but their 4 stroke engines idling sounds MUCH nicer than the the minging car alarm like yinging that the 66s have! Never mind the 4 Stroke (bonfire) engines, It's those traction motors that makes them sound much nicer than a lot else! Just go to Micheldever and get 70001 on an up liner - you can hear it scream for miles up the bank, then 2 lots of screaming traction motors and a screaming set of rad fans pass you and the just fade into the distance.
