    The new profile image just proves what you thought all along: 'Bomber's just another 3rd Class citizen!' I write quite a lot, currently over 380 Hub pages (see the link), a couple of dozen of which are railway modelling orientated under the heading RITES OF PASSAGE FOR A MODEL RAILWAY. Dig in and enjoy the read. Specialist travel hubs are included, about following the Tees upriver, over the Dales and Moors and around Eston moor near Middlesbrough in connection with the ironstone mining. I have included several Hub-pages on travelling along preserved lines in the region. I would definitely recommend a day on the NYMR, and the journey west from Leeming Bar on the WR is an unforgettable experience.

    Well it's nearly here at last. Oxford Rail's presented images of the J27 in various guises, LNER and BR(NE). Can't wait to get my mitts on at least one, preferably two. There's a lot of choice of re-liverying to do, I'll probably go for the early totem, use 65894 for one - a York (50A) engine - and leave the other as West Hartlepool's 65837 as in the images from Hattonvery s. Cab detail looks good,  very much the bee's knees (see image 2). Release date has been pushed back to 2020, which in a way suits me, although I'd have liked to have seen it earlier. At least I've a fighting chance of being able to afford two.
