  1. Now that would make an impressive background for a model - if you had a high enough ceiling. And as you say an interesting collection of wagons. Thanks for your painstaking analysis. Jonathan
  2. I understand that the HMRS GNR steward is unwell. He may be the same person who you tried to contact as he is/was very active in the GNR Society. Jonathan
  3. More seriously, I did read that they increased the number of 197s being fitted with ERTMS from the original figure which was the same as the number of 158s. but it seems short-sighted not to fit them all now when ERTMS will be installed steadily on other parts of the system in the next few years. Jonathan
  4. Has it clearance for future electrification? J
  5. Presumably you want your satnav in a position where you can see it without taking your eyes too far off the road. Therefore on the edge of the windscreen makes more sense than lower down. Mind you I prefer proper maps, though they are not exactly convenient in a car. J
  6. Is there going to be a show in 2024? I was told some time ago that it was hoped to do one. Well worth the trip from mid Wales. Jonathan
  7. "Aston Le Walls international airport" With no airport station of course. J
  8. There at last: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-67663284 Jonathan
  9. And I have a jar of coal from Ocean Taff Merthyr Colliery for my GWR/RR layout wagons. J
  10. Absolute chaos this morning on Avanti services from Euston. My sister in law is therefore two hours late getting to Newtown. What was odd was that the train she was on disappeared from the National Rail Enquiries train reporting system before it even reached Coventry. Jonathan
  11. That is interesting as the National Travel website was saying it is a signal failure near Warrington Bank Quay which is causing the WCML delays. Jonathan
  12. "reinvest every single penny" saved from cancelling the remainder of the rail project." (ie HS2) But no money has been saved, merely less borrowed. So don't hold your breath. Jonathan
  13. I wasn't expecting you to list kits/ What about the tender behind Hornby's Lord of the Isles? I must admit that it looks rather more modern than the loco. Jonathan
  14. No additions to RTR but there have been quite a few kits of other tenders. Jonathan
  15. It would never have happened with semaphore signalling . . . Hat, coat . . . . J
  16. Interesting to see Liverpool Riverside. I knew ity existed but this is the first photo IO have ever seen of it. Jonathan
