Hi Gibbo To answer your sensible question, of how many DMUs? I had a count up last night, one two, three, four, five, six , er, er, well lots.

I have just been and counted the unmade MTK kits I have. Do I need a Derby Lightweight? They do not seem to be a type operative on the lines that are supposed to go into Sheff Ex. That is why my Bachy one is in its box. Do I need a Wickhams (class 109, for those who cannot remember pre decimalisation ) or a Park Royal (class 103) as they never ran into Sheffield? Do I need another Gloucester parcels unit. I have one for Sheff Ex and one for Pig Lane? Do I need a Swindon 4 car inter city (class 123) unit, I am already building a 8 car set from Tri-ang bits and bobs and in the time era that I model they did not appear at Sheff Ex? Do I need another Met Cam unit? 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloucester parcels, there were plenty of them at Newton Heath just put them onto a Manchester through service every now and again. Swindon Inter City, Reading or Oxford must playing away in a Cup game and it has arrived on a Foot-Ex. Metropolitan Cammell, there were too many of them anyway ! Sorted.

Hi Gibbo There are some nice ideas. 1. The RTC livery one did not appear until after my time period. 2. Same with the Wickhams, they were happy living in sleepy Norwich. 3. The Gloucester has gangway ends so is a WR one, unless...... 4. it is attached to the Swindon unit carrying the beer (or cider if it is Argyle). 5. To many, now that is a problem. 3 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are pure Japanese versions of this song, some better than others. This is the only one I have found with Asa the writer singing on it, along with Machiya and Wasabi from the Wagakki Band. A Japanese song, with Russian sub titles being discussed on a mainly British model railway forum. Music is so international. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best Woody. I hope they find what they are looking for and treat you accordingly. Is it a radio active angiogram, because I had one of them many years ago? I had a lot of investigations for chest pain, admitted once with suspected heart attack. When I had the simple ordinary angiogram it was done by a consultant who I worked with when I was nursing. As I was slightly older than the junior doctors, they all called me uncle Clive. When she came round to see everyone lined up for their procedure she said "Hello Uncle Clive". I could here one patient say to his wife , "He'll get better treatment he is her uncle." Upshot of all the investigations despite the chest pain, the breathing problems and the ECGs causing junior doctors to get excited they couldn't find what was wrong. About the same time I started my dog walking business and the pain stopped, the breathing improved and my mental state got better. The very nice trickcyclist who was also looking after me said that I couldn't have been imaging the pain. Both her and my cardiologist said it could be my blood vessels going into spasm due to stress. Thank goodness I left the job I was doing it isn't nice thinking will I see the day out when the GTN spray doesn't stop the pain. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
