A Nod To Brent - a friendly thread, filled with frivolity, cream teas and pasties. Longing for the happy days in the South Hams 1947.

Looks like the king of pasties was about to make an impulse buy.

 

I really, really hope he wasn't considering that thing in the green box, at the front?  That inner ancient DJH thing looks like a S15; surely not tempted by that CK?

There's an awful lot of shunting being done. 1363 does the honours.

After losing the toad it picks up his NA shunting truck to get some oil tankers.

Rob that toad is a long way from home shouldn't you be re-branding it Newton Abbot or sumit. 

[gwrrob]

That toad has already been rebranded.

Well to be fair she was being prepared (as a contingency) to tow a loco home

 

Fortunately TRW, had the skills to fix her

I wondered why this thread was quiet, everybody is reading the D J Models announcement thread instead.

It does take some believing. Unlike ANTB, of course!

Perhaps he is crowdfunding his RMWeb gold membership.

Has he been announced as the new manager at Home Park?

Just to let you all know I am taking "Intellectual property" on all pannier tanks especially the cute ones.

At least with your scratchbuilding history we know you know what makes locos run decently. Not every DJM customer would say the same for him, perhaps.

In which case I'm taking the IP on all toilets, in all forms.

I think you've invented a new game:

 

"I'm taking IP on..."

 

- all holes in baseboards that were drilled in the wrong place.

- all soldered joints in wires that were just too short the first time round.

- all bits of track that are too close together to run trains past each other.

- all bridges that are too low for some locos to fit underneath.

 

Any more?

[Oldddudders]

IP daily. Honestly I do!

You're lucky. I have to do it in the middle of the night too.

I sometimes have to, too. But less often since the TURP.

Both, as a rule.
