Not having to much of an interest in the Ethel units, more mid/late 60s early 70s for me.

Looking at a couple of my old shots from May 86, i noticed names, badges, plated over grills, differ

between these 2.

Ha, the carpet monster NEVER gives up

Does this mean, you dont like class 50s.

Very nice, but i never knew Ravenscraig was just north of Glasgow ?

39 years ago this morning the old fella and myself set off for Doncaster Works on a DMU from York via Selby to see the last Deltics lined up at the Plant. What a magic day imprinted on my memory! Can anyone remember the DPS racehorse appeal which eventually got enough cash to buy 55009. Many of the above have vanished, the York to Selby line, the DMU, the Plant and most of the Deltics. 

I`m also in that lot, some where.

Agreed a brilliant day, but sad.

Ah, nice to see my picture taken of 'Ballymoss' at York on 3rd August 1981.

 

Which makes me wonder, when people post other peoples pictures on Pinterest and such, why don't they include the original details such as location, date and photographer's name? (Just wondering, like)

 

PS This question is not aimed at you, Ray

Yes, i wonder about that myself.

I have seen a good few pics, of my old motorbikes, on other sites.

With no mention of any details.

I think its because they get past from pillar to post, on a site like Pinterest. That they just get lost

in the realms of the web.

Midland Road, Mon 4-1-21

Yes , Warrington

But that part had lines on it , not too long ago.

A bit of a weird sign, with 100 ton+ locos going over it .

The York pic, had another class 70 on it yesterday as well.

No Warships ?

Got to give that a go.  Thanks

Can you show us , what you have done.

Please.

Why have you got your models hanging from the ceiling ?

Using a 3 on the domino.

From earlier photos, the locos have another bodyside grill.

Wonder if its just one side only.

The white-on-red logos of D1733 were actually stick on vinyl.  One of them 'fell off' and survived on someones garage wall into the 21st century.  It was sold to a railwayana collector so is out there somewhere!

I like that, "fell off" .

i remember me and 1 of my mates having a wander around OOC, back in the day.

when 1 of the D`s fell of D7100, fell of has we walked past.

I wonder if he`s still got it,  Not seen him in 40+ years.

I like that.

Thanks

I`ve just built one of these said kits,

but what colour should i go for.  It will be at the side of a small diesel depot, based around 1965-1972

Twixt a midland/western change over point.   What colours have you gone for ?,    Lets see em

Thanks to all 

I thought it was a ying ying & not a yang yang
