Popular Post KNP Posted April 5 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 5 (edited) Here are panniers five and six now all numbered and crewed. Posing for a picture on the main they have now, officially, been registered on the LM loco roster and ready for action.... 2776, open cab version, is a static loco and will be one of my photo props. 8787 is fully operational and was chugging along on the rolling road just prior to these pictures. Just one job to do and that is fit the spectacle brass windows to the 2776 cab that i am waiting to arrive from Phoenix.

As for the vaccine could the products of inferior railway companies beat the products of the omnipotent GWR? 😃😁😄😬😀 Joking side it's funny how my taste has changed - as a lad it was Kings and Castles for me, however since building Danemouth my favourite loco is the everyday Pannier - Danemouth has five!

Popular Post KNP Posted April 8 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 8 Mornin' chaps. what you chatting about... Not a lot.... Working out how to get that crate off? Still? At the moment no, more about that scary event what happened a couple of days ago!! Which one was that?? When that brazen Pannier steamed past with that wonky knob on display...... Well, that does surprise me as you all seem men of the world and used to scary sights.... Yes, the sight just made us chuckle, it was the searing scream that Mrs Jones, the cleaning lady, let ripe that made us dive for cover...so to speak! I would have thought she would have been of sterner stuff, to be honest! Apparently not as it reminded her of last weekend and polishing the brass bed head???? Really, the mind boggles!! 21 2 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
