    It's funny because you had not heard it before.

    5,402. That's a good one.

    And the baseboard is still painted green!

    Hovis was sliced brown bread and "Don't say "Brown", say "Hovis"" was an advertising slogan in the late 60s. A schoolmate of mine who's surname was Brown, got the nickname "Hovis".

    Brilliant!!

    Looks like serious subsidence at Shildon.

    Now that is what I call excellent service.

    Sure Santa Claus was doing this with his sled hundreds of years ago.

    Enjoyed that sketch. Especially the ending.

    No surprise there about the English papers. There is probably a conspiracy theory about it somewhere on Facebook blaming corruption in high places.

    Probably not but it should still be OK on first radius curves.

    At least the "King Arthur" is painted green even if it has become an 2-0-2 and the cab takes up the entire vehicle.

    At about 4'3" gauge that makes 16.5mm track about right!

    I believe there is a BR cheese sandwich at Shildon.

    Are there any left over trailer car seat interiors. If so I would purchase five so that I can have full seating on my APT-E with four additional trailers.

    Don't feel sorry for all of us. I originally ordered the sound version but changed my order to the silent one and am happy with that decision.

    Since there was never any restrictions on the number that would be produced then it is reasonable to presume IMHO that there would not be many further sales to be made by a second run until a good number of years have passed. I for one would be more supportive of a different model and will probably order a prototype HST if the announced price is right.

    How about a class 303 Glasgow Blue emu to go with that new OHLE from Peco?

    This is getting silly. If Rapido want to do another run then why not? The advertising did not specify that this was a limited edition so even if the words do appear on the certificate they were certainly not part of the contract of sale. Anyway Rapido can avoid all such debate by making a slight difference in a future run. One possible difference could be a revised pc board in the trailer coaches as discussed recently to enable control of the interior lights.

    With this Peco development hopefully this will encourage some manufacturer to produce a rtr class 303 Glasgow Blue emu and other earlier emus.

    The delete button has been replaced with a hide button.

    I purchased these signs via e bay. I don't know what stations they were from.

    Very valuable if it ever comes up for sale would be the cheese sandwich (see APT-E thread)

    There is a beautiful model of Downpatrick set up in one of the carriages there. http://www.google.ie/search?site=&source=hp&ei=k-YyV8vGItvwgAaT3Zi4Ag&q=downpatrick+railway+christmas&oq=Downpatrick+railea&gs_l=mobile-gws-hp.1.3.0i13l2j0i13i30l3.2163.10377.0.12808.17.17.0.9.9.0.281.1815.13j2j2.17.0....0...1c.1j4.64.mobile-gws-hp..0.17.962.3..0j41j46j0i131j0i46j0i22i30.0VA8_qIE5cA#istate=kp:xpd
