    Who's being judgmental ? ........... it's a fact that the factories would have been short of workers for a while - and we needn't discuss where replacements came from.
  2. Wickham Green too
    Even if it is "Sold Out at Rapido" it may not be "Sold Out at Alternative Retailer".
  3. Wickham Green too
    Lots of the workers weren't repaired, though.
  4. Wickham Green too
    No doubt the escort driver checked there was adequate height ...........
  5. Wickham Green too
    Rather depends on one's definition of "livery" ................ I suspect your thirty includes many variants the yer average bloke in the street wouldn't spot ! 😊

    Never mind all that 'M' stuff - a 246 bus and class 377 should get me to Maidstone ! ( ASLEF permitting )

    ... unless they ended up on the dirt as a consequence !

    "In many cases, the letters refer to the ends of the line of route" so my guess of Glasgow was probably right ....... though, presumably 'G' designation starts at Euston so isn't much of a help !
  9. Wickham Green too
    How do you re-signal concrete ???!? 🙄
  10. Wickham Green too
    I did wonder whether it was km .......... presumably I was wrong about Glasgow district !
  11. Wickham Green too
    Terminally sad, I believe. 😢
  12. Wickham Green too
    Not on this one they didn't : - Grosmont : 20/4/80
  13. Wickham Green too
    If 451 is miles from - presumably - Euston and G is the division ( Glasgow ? ) then the industry in the background might be something to do with Ravenscraig ................. but that's a lot of IFs an' I dunno nuffink ! ✋
  14. Wickham Green too
    Now explain where the track embankment has gone between the end of the sidings and the stop blocks !
  15. Wickham Green too
    Don't tell me their model's actually built on a Land Rover !
  16. Wickham Green too
    Obviously not been near the confessional recently !

    Looks like it's only the frame on the rear of the skip that's fouled ...... difficult to tell whether it was bent backwards beforehand but it looks to have scraped under the bash beam then jammed under the bridge itself : is there a design flaw there ??!?

    While a particular wagon might have been due works attention on 1st January 1923 and could, in theory, have received Southern livery, it's unlikely the appropriate Committees had decided what that livery would be ! .............. there was probably a delay and there may have been wagons turned out in complete pre-grouping liveries or pre-grouping paintwork lettered 'SR' before things settled down.
  19. Wickham Green too
    Hmmmm .... suggests SOMEONE might be ( or might have been ) interested !
  20. Wickham Green too
    ... though Carnforth tried to set a trend with 42085 !
  21. Wickham Green too
    Did you analyse how that translated into numbers of vehicles rather than diagrams ?
  22. Wickham Green too
    .... any evidence of Caley blue ? ........... er .... of any shade ? 😁
  23. Wickham Green too
    M32978M obviously works with Mk1s most of the time so I don't doubt the gangways have adaptors .......... difficult to tell from the mangled remains, though !
  24. Wickham Green too
    Certainly the B1 was soon spinning its wheels at great speed !
  25. Wickham Green too
    Shows how good spring buffers are ......... both locos rebounded much further than you'd expect !
