There is a simple reason why this loco was not at Wells, dear boy.

 

It's 'narrow gauge'...

Answer the question man. Is that a Manor? For all I know it could be a Grange, Hall, County, King, or Saint.

There's that Wikipedia thingy but, as it's all apparently lies, I doubt any of the classes were real.

I thought a Manor was a big house usually in a village, Granges round our way are usually farms, we hang our coats in the Hall, a County is a big area with towns and villages etc in it, a King wears a sparkly hat and a Saint has a glowing hat about 4" above his head. 

 

Hope this clears things up.

Oh, no it isn't.  What about Courts, then?  Or Ladies? Or Fair Rosamund?

 

Who wots now where Wayland's bones lie, or in what hollow deep?  (actually, Mike Stationmaster answered this a couple of years ago but I'm not looking it up now).

No, Wikipedia is really good. All the classes are real and were designed by aliens. Or Edward Thompson. I forget which.

Edward Thompson?

 

I thought aliens were designed by Edward Bulwer Lytton?

At least the scary ones?

Stupid autocorrect

[The Johnster]

You'd have to reckon anything like a zombie or werewolf, Dracula or anything sort of Gothic is designed by the CME with the most goth name in existence, Sir Vincent (nevermore) Raven.

I think you've been abducted by aliens, Mr Spams.

 

 

Or by Edward Thompson.

 

Or Lear (which would make more sense, given the things you come out with...)

 

 

Or both.

I forget. It might have been that Edward Thompson was designed by aliens.

I thought you'd already done the research for your guide to GWR loco identification?

 

Apparently not a fan of Prairie tanks though?
