Why didn't he test it? It ought to go for much more than a standard BR liveried one. Those GWR versions are very rare.

RMweb Premium kevinlms Posted June 19, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 19, 2017 Looks like this guy was torn between enrolling in the David Bailey course and the Stanley Unwin one.

Perhaps a yellow Network Rail one is the rarest of all! Testing would have been so simple:- 1. Open wheelie bin 2. Drop item into bin. 3. Did item fall in correctly? Yes - test passed! Go to 4. No - Go to 2 and repeat. 4. Close bin. Edited June 19, 2017 by Il Grifone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
