runs as required Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 One thing that always makes me look on the platforms is the post box don't think I have seen one before ..... I agree - its these kind of idiotic....idiosins...peculiar little details that always set me off to looking around more carefully. When I was a smug an earnest sixth former I got the school a heavily reduced subscription to the Spectator - because I'd become an avid reader of Betjeman who contributed a wonderfully maverick weekly column on railways for several years called 'City and Suburban' . I learnt such a lot from JB: one never-to-be-forgotten detail was how one Liverpool Street UndergrounD station Met/District line platform had Britain's only bar counter serving directly onto an often crowded platform - where they would pull you a pint of beer irrespective of pub opening times. We had a school trip to London (Chinley to St Pancras) where I led an expeditionary force of the older looking kids around on the Circle line and we all got served! dh 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Todd Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 That's NOT a job you want to do too often.....are you going to attack the blue strip at the same time....so as to not undo the work at a later date? No, thats what has stopped me doing most things, around the layout, how I was to make them upright......... The blue stripes were redone 6 weeks ago,on this platform 1, no wish to look at them again, thanks, But, now I straightened the uprights on Platform 2/3, last week, I do have to redo the blue stripes , but feel more confident with that. Moorings to you. The Blue stripe has been a bit of a nightmare, As I stated above,I had re done platform 1, a few week' s ago, all seemed to go well. Now, it has been pointed out, "observed" a few are wonky, again. I can only put this down to gravity, down south, as they were, reasonable, after the re do. As both platforms are on the occasional dining table again, should I remove them,the blue stripes, altogether, or, try a different method ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just love the guy (in a strictly NH sense of course) I think I'll contact Andy Y and ask if any mention of Betjeman, anywhere, should receive an automatic, by default Craftsmanship/Clever award.

Maybe it was Winchester's Earthquake, yesterday, that did it ........... Ok - back OT .... how about a Fibre-Tipp Pen for the blue lines? You might be able to get them the same level by doing one side at a time and laying them in a row, with a straight-edge on them ..... thinking about that, are they actually all at the same level on DP, or did the painter guestimate and slap a blue line at approx the right height?
