Here's a couple of pics, firstly of Jason, (Sandside) Bacup, and it shows the lovely flow of the track Marcway Track in the Station throat.

And now Jeff's, (Physicsman) Kirkby Luneside, with ready to lay Marcway points.

And now a Video from Kirkby Luneside to show how well stock runs over Marcway points.

 

I cant wait till I can film Bitton.

Oops. Sorry mate I haven't seen Bacup! I worded that wrong!! it meant to read as that you had seen it!!! See I'm on the wrong side of the pond where we can't speak proper English  !!

Squatch SWMBO contested my midnight running session so I'm up at 0500 to finish what got started!

Cheers Shaun, I thought you'd nipped over unanounced and sliped through Custome in your Squatch Suit, hahhahaha

 

All the best mate.

Good to see your getting a feel for the plan, I always enjoy getting the points,track out and planning,

 

looks a good plan with the look of the track,

 

looking forward to the laying of track after Christmas .

Hi Brian, yes cheers, I would like to think it will be before Christmas but I'm not going to rush things and be bad again so I'm looking towards Christmas, but November would be a Bonus.

Dear Mr Bri.s

 

It is terrible, page twelve, 20 days since he started, and still no trains. What is that fellow Peters up to? My men will never go on leave at this rate. All we keep hearing about is this shed has still to be built. That Peters chap is not having to put up with Sergeant Shoutalot drilling the recruits all day long.

 

His latest refusal is my kind offer of sending a working party to paint his shed green. I do try to help him so my men can go on leave.

 

Yours

Thanks that's what we fancied but the neighbor already has a nice Mid Oak and as the adjoining fence will be that colour we may go with that.

 

Cheers,

Bodge.

What, no strategic reserve of creosote to give the shed that authentic smell...

Watching that video brought back memories! Monday, November 25, 2013....  At least you didn't show the one with me making the silly bugle sounds!

 

Like you, I can't wait to get tracklaying - Marcway/SMP again. And I hope you'll come and run your stock on KL2 and do some more vids.

Hi Andy,

If I remember correctly Jason got them nice flowing lines on Bacup by using Templot for the track plan.

But she does have a SHED full of Loco's - a Black Five arrived today to add to the collection. It was the one that stood in for Tangmere on the Swanage Belle that we went on in June while on holiday (44932).

Dear Mr lmsforever

 

Thank you for that information about the green used by the National Trust blending in with the countryside. It must be the same green my men paint the vehicles with so they blend in with the countryside and the Soviets Russians cannot see them. Strange thing is the YMCA ladies in their tea van always find them at NAAFI time? I wonder if they are Soviet  Russian spies? I will get the Sergeant Major to call the Military Police in the morning.

 

I have just had thought. The Quartermaster, god awful man came up through the ranks, told me that the gaps on his shelf were where someone had stolen some of our green paint. I wonder if the thief has sold it to the National Trust? I will get the Sergeant Major to call the Military Police in the morning.

 

 

I do need a fence BLOWING UP tomorrow mate. hhahahha

 

Bodge.

Dear Mr Peters

 

I have ordered Lieutenant Poshname hyphen La de Da to return all explosives to the stores. He has reported back that Corporal, whatever is his name is, has done so. The Quartermaster, god awful man came up through the ranks, was moaning in the mess tonight that he had no room on his shelves for the explosives as his men had gone round and filled up all the gaps ready for my inspection tomorrow. I hate seeing gaps in the shelves, looks so untidy. So I doubt he will reissue it at so short notice. He will find some form that has to be filled in in triplicate and require the Brigadier's signature.

 

My Adjutant, Captain Nearlyposhname, not a bad chap for a grammar school boy, has suggested I could always send Sergeant Shoutalot to practice his drill orders and see if volume of air he displaces will blow the fence down. He will loan your lovely lady his ear defenders. He says that you don't need them as your hearing is already damaged by playing devils music rock and roll on an electric guitar and riding noisy motorbicycles on army property. Riding motorbicycles on army property? I will get the Sergeant Major to call the Military Police in the morning.

 

Yours, hoping you will have Sergeant Shoutalot (and give us a days peace)

Hi Jeff, I will be, but, now you've moved even further North I need to renew my Passport.

I hope I can get up there to your new Gaff.

Ray

Hi Ray, I'm sure your right, I have tried to download it but instead of doing what the vid says it should do, it just says save, but doesn't say where its saved. I have been through all my programs, deleted Anyrail V4 and V5 but cant find Templot anywhere.

Hi Andy,

 

Templot usually installs a desktop icon! Try looking in 'program files' or 'all programs' To be honest its a real nightmare to begin with but with a little presevereance you will get an idea what to do, but please please please don't ask me how to use it!!!!!!!!!

I've looked in program files and all programs, even looked under the Lap Top in case it slid underneath, its nowhere to be seen. I looked for the Icon because that's what I had with anyrail.

Hi Andy.

It will be in your 'download' folder. Just. Double click on the Templotxxxxsetup.exe file and it should install.

Hi Andy, we were a bit disappointed that Tangmere was still out of action for our 'Swanage Belle' tour but at least it was hauled by my next favourite loco - the Black Five.
