Phew! There's a relief!...😅

 

No bargain bin repaint material to be had then.

Do we get the customary Easter egg Plymouth special by the way? 

 

An eggscellent idea . Seen before, Mogul class 5391 does the honours.

Is there a low-fat, non-milk, low-salt alternative (basically an egg without chocolate), please?

Yes, I think it's called an egg or something like that.

Indeed, I just wish some very thin and wiry hens could lay some non-fat ones...!

Extra close type my old Janner.😉

 

Smart thanks Robin. That looks proper job distance thank you. Extra Close required in a certain Defence line up at the moment....arrrgggh.

All the best for the weekend all.

Sam's Trains supporter no doubt?

Actually I think that looks brilliant. Typical of one of the latest Franchisee Livery  'wraps' .

A canny sort of effort as my Jordy Gran would have said. Personally I think it's Spam and should be reported.

K boom tish.

That open wagon is labelled SR, but surely a delivery from Cadbury in Bournville should in LMS wagons…

KR Models were also present and absolutely nothing more to be seen on their proposed Mica.

 

To shew my impartiality and balance, the KR Models mica is available to pre-order through retailers like Rails here. Still nothing new to see yet.

 

Any thoughts ?
