  1. Or celebrity climate change protesters jetting around the world to to tell US not to fly because it's destroying the world
  2. I have LMS at War and By Rail to Victory (LNER) and was wondering if the other two had done the same to complete the set. LMS at War is not hard to come by, my friend Chris currently has 3 copies in stock
  3. Good to hear from you Natalie Get well soon Mr Bear
  4. Whilst on the subject of wartime railways, did the GWR and Southern publish history's of their wartime operations? I know that the LMS & LNER did.
  5. I would say that "acceptable" toppings are whatever you want to put on and blow the naysayers, you are the one eating it
  6. According to Iain Rice the HO coupling is nearer to S scale anyway
  7. Trent are normally pretty good at keeping buses on the proper routes, - people still ask if this is the Derby bus!
  8. Locally information on services to and from Derby has disappeared from realtime displays presumably because transponders in Burton are not compatible with those in Derby
  9. The position of the route number is a DiPTAC advisory not legislation. Trentbarton who don't use route numbers for most services alternate between route name and destination with the information centred.
  10. When it came to genocide Starlin made Hitler look like a bumbling amateur
  11. Singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic in assembly on mornin with our words for the courus"glory glory hallelujah, teacher hit us with a ruler " a voice in our ears growled "if you don't sing the right words teacher will hit you with a ruler. It was the deputy head!
  12. It took a long time for the Met to allow drivers to have the luxury of a cab door, RT's?
  13. Eastern National was another one. Local operator Stevensons of Uttoxeter had a yellow strip at the end of the blind, one driver in particular on taking over a bus would wind the display to the end and just display a number. He even used the right one sometimes. And he would get very shirty if you asked where he was going.
  14. Welcome to the madhouse Ajay
  15. With most supermarkets being closed for TWO days I dred to think what it will be like tomorrow. Won't bother me, not going anywhere near.
  16. Barton Transport had quite a few coaches with this arrangement used on stage carriage duty
  17. Not too bad on coaches that only need the display changing occasionally but must have been a pain on service buses
