Joel wasn't there either on all the pccasions I looked. Further to this he @coeurdelyon has posted on the Dapol autocoach thread that the corridor toplights are being close to signing off for production. The diagrams were posted on here back in November. These were the highest polling item in the poll shewn above. 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold teaky Posted March 25, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 25, 2023 Don't trust him Robin. Next you'll be taking three days to drive a train from one end of ANTB to the other and there will be a mysterious crate in the goods yard. 😀 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold 5BarVT Posted March 25, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 25, 2023 Being perhaps a bit too pedantic, isn’t the crate a little late for the transport? Or has it been marked up for the company ownership when it’s eventually opened a la Little Muddle. I thought GEC was 70s (ish) AEI 60s and back in GWR times it would have been BTH, SGE, MetVic etc?

MrWolf Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Actually, GEC is about the same age as god's dog: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Electric_Company#:~:text=The company was founded in,£1 billion a year.&text=In June 1998%2C GEC sold,on the Paris stock exchange. So it's obviously not a time travelling crate! 3 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Popular Post 2ManySpams Posted March 26, 2023 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2023 Took the opportunity to survey the inside of this old GWR goods shed yesterday... On arrival they kindly gave me a ping pong bat, which was nice. Meanwhile I obviously carried on with the in-depth surveying work. 17 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
