If you're on Facebook there's some very good pages for East/Yorkshire railways. Will follow progress as its pretty local to me. Rob

And another one today, both Acclaims,same owner and no were not stealing the front grills, he takes them out to make headlight adjustment easier, both passed the MOT no issues. Rob

Been a while since one of these came in,must be a rare car now. Rob

37264 at Moorgates, mine on the left,friend Tom's on the right.

Class 142,35 years service, lots of liveres,various interior refits,big operational area and currently popular in preservation, probably the most talked about 2nd gen DMU. Rob

Make that 5 😎 Rob

Steve has posted on the MIOG Facebook page, he has a Alexander Y type Leyland Leopard,Leyland National 2 and AEC Swift under development. Also has Bedford TK,Atkinson Boarderer and Guy J4 tractor units in development aswell. I know his kits ain't perfect and do take a bit of work but they should prove to be useful. Rob

Yes,but remember who was working there at the time........ Rob

Two of the Boston Frodsham team caught going for another tea refill. Rob

Series 3 Bristol VR would be very useful for many layouts. Rob

Don't see many of these in now, 17k from new and still on its original tyres. Rob

When the feasibility study was done for the YWR it was recommended to start across the road from the original station for several reasons, the station site is now a busy cafe and heavily covered with trees,its also land locked by two roads which would have made expansion very, if not impossible ,due to needing a level crossing. The current location will make it easier to expand, green lane and then Wetwang,as its flat fields to clear. Aswell as the money and materials we obviously have to get permission from Sledmere estate, who then negotiate with the field tenant that they'll be losing a percentage of their land. Wetwang will be the limit of the YWR as the trackbed from there has mostly gone but it will give us manageable line to look after and add a new attraction to the wolds area. Rob

M&DR never had a diesel or DMU work on it,had it stayed open into the 60s I guess it would have,similar to the Scarborough - Whitby line. Burdale tunnel has collapsed in three places now,will only stay open for the bats that live in there. It's also on Birdsall Estate who have made it very clear that they don't want to Yorkshire Wolds Railway extending on their land. Rob

25042,was the only 25/1 on the stand. Rob

Very enjoyable first day, all smiles from the Boston Frodsham team. Rob

No available just yet but we're very grateful to Phill for the loan of 25324 on Boston Frodsham at this weekends Scalefourm show. The details,finish and sound quality is absolutely stunning, anyone with a pre order you won't be disappointed. Rob

I'm part of the Boston Frodsham team,all packed and ready to go from a currently sunny East Yorkshire, our first visit to Scalefourm and really looking forward to the weekend. Rob

A1 Soviet Spares on Hedon Road,I know the guys who had it,they collected them from all over the UK. The signs on the cars were made and painted by the owners dad who got the Russian sailors to translate them so he spelt them right. Rob

Is a second gen DMU kit something you may consider doing in the future? I'll just leave this here for you........ Rob

No it's complete, Interiors, chassis have already been done but nothing started on the two bodyshells,possibly quite rare as I've never seen another like this. If I've got it correct, this kit is now sold by PRMRP but the bodyshells are now brass with white metal ends. Rob

I've had this class 142 in the too do pile for quite a bit now having bought it off ebay, not sure if it's a Post War Prototype or MMP but the bodies are one piece resin mouldings and very good quality. Rob

Finally I'll get to see this fantastic little layout, see you there. Rob

155343 at Cottingham, 1/10/21. Rob
