I was hoping for some feedback so if any of you are fellow YouTubers could I be cheeky and ask for you to watch it??? My channels called SuttonJunction90 if you do and it will be much appriciated. Cheers, Sutty :)

      I started uploading at 1, it got to 90 odd percent and stopped a 4 oclock so I started it again and its only just done. These times put me off doing it too.

  10. A nice little fact for you all - Manchester United, formally Newton Heath, was started by employees of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway and they use to play on whats now Manchester Piccadilly station :)

      Are you sure? London Road was built around 1847, Newton Heath, as was, only formed in 1878 and played around Moston and Clayton before the move to OT.

    4. Sutton Junction

      Sutton Junction

      Yeah they started out on North road which is next to where they worked until 1893 when they moved to Bank Street in Clayton.

  11. I want a Class 220 and 221 Virgin Voyager. Think I might treat myself for Christmas... again :)

      What have you bought, I've decided to do a Virgin depot in N as I've not enough space for one in 00 and there's a pendolino on the way in N from Dapol :)

      I bought a DCC Fitted Graham Farish set. Not sure if im keeping it though might stick it on ebay. A Pendo??? wow that sounds great :)

    4. Swifty11

      Swifty11

      Delayed though... :( Dapol say it might come but it's a bit of a wait

  13. N gauge are seriously lacking in the train set department, thats the only thing putting me off gettin in to it :(

    1. Swifty11

      Swifty11

      I'm tempted by 0 gauge modern image and peco 009 private railways. Are you a member of DEMU Jack?

    2. Sutton Junction

      Sutton Junction

      O gauge looks good but its to expensive for me. Locos at

    3. Swifty11

      Swifty11

      They had an 0 gauge class 47 with sound and smoke on the stand, if that's not a reason to sign I don't know but seriously it's a great organisation and it's eel worth the money you also get membership to DEMU forum. The modern image 0 gauge looks fab! DRS 66 in 0 gauge sound and smoke would be fantastic

  14. Well, im dissapointed to say the least at hearing that news!!!
  15. Im seriously tempted to treat my self to an N Gauge set for Christmas...

      Good luck mate! Maybe a Pandora bracelet or something? If you get stuck, maybe a look around hattons would help, guessing she's not a rail fan (?)

      Ive not idea but I think the jewelery option is a safe bet. I was in Selfridges last weekend and saw a necklace for her, only problem was the price -
