Jim’s “out and about with GBRf” thread


Recommended Posts

Just noticed that you're signed off Jim, hope it isn't too serious and that you are fighting fit again soon. Any chance of some modelling during your enforced lay-off?

Best wishes, you will be very much missed by your followers!

Kind regards,

Jock.

Just one iphone pic from last night, the remains of bescot shed!!

 

Will be home tomorrow so can post a few pics from my the last couple of days going up to claydon, not taken many as its so dark up there

Wow looks like it was bombed during the war and to think not long ago it was still a working depot!

It was Jim's picture above that has just made me dig some old books out the garage.

They comprise of 'Diesels and electrics on shed by Rex Kennedy and 'BR diesels on shed'.

Ive had them since 1981 and toyed with the idea of selling them on a while back, but

being as its now the end of the BR TMD as we knew it, Im so glad I held on to them!

They are great books. I have all of them except the Scottish one.

Aye, they are indeed very good books!

I've not got the Scottish one either funnily enough.

All I gota do now is find one on how to make a time machine.
