    Halifax. Beginning of June, only 5 weeks away. You will see lots of things that are new and wonderful, which you didn't know you needed. Don't go near the E&T stand early on! Mike

    I'm definitely attracting the wrong type of bird. Oh what wouldn't I give for to see a decent pair of tits. [/quote We have at least 2 pairs of Coal Tits. Despite a few viewings we don't have any takers for the nest box yet. Mike

    What about the ultimate North Eastern Railway locomotive? A Raven pacific, maybe even the Gresley modified version. Mike

    I was told the plates were cast, but before fitting Pakistan declared war on India. They were the first (and so far only) Commonwealth nation to go to war with another. That's why they were never fitted, probably in the same private collection now as "British Enterprise" and "Pegasus". Mike

    But it is a whole new skill set, and something new and exciting. The rewards and sense of satisfaction will be in proportion to the change in scale. Enjoy Mike

    C & L, and Slaters. Building the Maunsells was covered in an MRJ a couple of years ago, the GUV, PMV and Van B and C are excellent. Mike P.S. Big fan of Treneglos, you are going to do something inspirational in 7mm

    Perhaps the talented, fertile and ubiquitous Worsdell forever, could be persuaded to post some pics of his Tyneside layout "Fellburn"? Mike

    "Brand new in box, it has only been out once for a brief test run" "un-run and never remover from the box" Make up your mind. It can't be both... Mike

    Having lived near the old North Road works until a couple of years ago, you hear some stories. There are supposed to be numerous "Darlington" plates off the B17, and "British Enterprise" has also been seen. Bearing in mind that North Road used "Durham School" as a boot scraper, these 'Replicas' were regarded as little more than ornaments. Mike

    Don't forget the sweeping brush stuck shank end down in the headboard framing. A) to sweep the deck off, and B) more importantly to dip the fuel tank because the gauge doesn't work! Mike

    Too true. That chug-a-bug sound ranks up there with the drone of a Deltic or the whistle of a Class 40. B)

    Brian, you have made me feel very old, but happy. It's just how I remember any one of a dozen sheds and stabling points 30 years ago. Mike
