w124bob Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Thanks Andy. You've inspired me to model a broken down bus on a bridge. It would just need the engine cover up and the fitter's Transit van parked behind it. Cameos, clichés etc etc... luv 'em. If it's a modern hybrid better have it on fire !

RMweb Premium Colin Posted August 26, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 26, 2015 So can anyone come up with a shot of a church where the wedding cars are leaving just as the funeral cortège draws up on the other side? The church really needs to be right next to a very busy main line...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted August 27, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 27, 2015 That's obviously a fake: the usual saying is that you wait for ages, and then three turn up... I was only going to do three but got carried away, or perhaps I should have been carried away? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Colin Posted August 28, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 28, 2015 We once stayed in a hotel like that in York, our room faced the Scarborough line which passes by on a low embankment. Sadly there weren't any steam specials scheduled for the period of our stay! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

34theletterbetweenB&D Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Wow, do you have the latin species name? (I imagine it wil be something like Locotinus Vaporious var. I xxxix) ?That'll knock 3D printing into a cocked hat before it has really got going. So can anyone come up with a shot of a church where the wedding cars are leaving just as the funeral cortège draws up on the other side? The church really needs to be right next to a very busy main line... That would be unusual, a situation that is avoided if at all possible, in my experience. Sequential weddings OR sequential funerals, thats a commonplace, no (modeller's) licence required. A recently deceased CoE priest was wont to tell a tale of his London parish, where one Saturday he had the extremely late arriving marital party that should have been wedding one 'stored' in the choir vestry, as he conducted wedding two from a somewhat late start, with wedding party three all over the road frontage, and a hard pressed Met traffic officer demanding that various cars be moved.

steve22 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Why does no one ever model a young lady tied to the track being rescued (just in time) by the hero? It happened a lot in real life; I've seen the films. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ColinK Posted July 8, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 8, 2016 I do a bit of part time driving for a local bus and coach company. Today I've got a little 24 seat coach and needed somewhere to park it between trips. So where did I go? I'm actually typing this while sitting in the coach, parked on Badger Bridge over the WCML. I can actually photograph the trains without getting out. Looks like my next layout will have to include a bus on a bridge, with me sitting in it, watching trains, drinking tea, reading RMweb and getting paid to do it.
