Their commission is a bit steep IMO. Ar$£ Despite being a twenty minute drive away, I did not go to this one, mainly as there was not anything I really needed. In the past a significant amount of the stuff was bought between two ebay traders. I suspect much of the kit builds will be available again, very soon, in smaller lots.

RMweb Gold The Fatadder Posted January 21, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 21, 2020 looking at today’s Oxford Rail 2020 releases, they are planning a Cowans Sheldon 15t crane. Given that the crane at Newton Abbot was a 15t CS job, hopefully it will be a good basis to create something that would have passed through Brent... 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeithMacdonald Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 What kind of pasty? I've just tried some from the West Cornwall Pasty Co. Quite good! They could be shipping them by express rail freight via Brent (hint). 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried sending you one as an attachment, but my email software complained it was too big. Fortunately, the West Cornwall has decided to make an emergency shipment by rail, in a hastely requisitioned GW goods fruit van. The factory is in Threemilestone, near Truro, but the nearest railway station (and their top-secret pasty production private loading dock) is at Chasewater Station (close to Jolly's Bottom). Coincidentally, the home of TwelveHeads Press, a fine publisher of West Country railway books. The West Cornwall News photographer was on hand to record the momentus occasion, and an emotional crowd of well-wishers from the factory, waving goodbye to their prize-winning products. I checked with the despatcher. It has to connect to more goods wagons in Truro, and the pasties are routed via Brent for some reason. Please can you take good care of them? 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium M.I.B Posted January 22, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 22, 2020 Agreed: https://www.philpspasties.co.uk/ Their postal service is rapid and the pasties refeeze and reheat perfectly - still taste like the ones hot out of the shop. That's quite an achievement apparently. Others come close, but never this good. There's a good pastie shop on the concourse at Liverpool Street Station. Then again, almost anything (bar Ginsters) would taste good as you alight the last train home full of ale and merriment. I must try one sober one day to see what they really taste like................... 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Limpley Stoker Posted January 22, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 22, 2020 The reason you can’t send these pasties by email is that the file attachment contains too many bytes. 1 3 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
