      Is this in or near Kingskerswell?

      The notion of a station there or thereabouts does seem to have been around for ever....

    Is it me or does anyone else think the girl in the C&M models banner looks like she's wearing a ww2 German cap?

      would it matter that much?

    Saw vehicle with cameras on its roof and "Apple Maps" on the side / rear, apparently filming in the villages in South Derbyshire about noon today.

    Went out for a leisurely bike ride, until a bin lorry overtook me and carried far too much speed towards a sharp bend. It rolled. Everyone’s ok thankfully...stay safe on your push irons people.

      TUT TUT @ Bourneagain! I all to well remember a cement lorry that "turned left" and clipped the curb as it did so. People were very much not "alright" after that one :(

    Who are all these 'artisans?' Where do they work? And how come they can now make beer? I thought brewers made beer.

    Tempers flared between a passenger on the Northern service to Scarborough this afternoon. Such black times for the railway. I don’t recall anything like it before, and I sincerely hope it never happens again.

      Been there many a time! Last train from Wakedfield was literally a battle ground many nights.

    Why do diesel/electric fans insist on calling Steam Locomotive kettles? I that get they boil water but really? Personally find it highly irritating

    1. LBRJ

      LBRJ

      It is MEANT to be irritating. It is also technically true. A bit like the early moniker of Parafin cans for diesels.... There IS more to worry about in life.
