    visited the Swindon and Cricklade Railway today, and came away with a nice overcoat ready for when I start firing (only cost me £5 as well) ;)

    We're in for a treat tonight, 'Tornado: The 100mph Steam Engine' on BBC4 followed by The Return of Flying Scotsman.

      It was already Vikings when I got home - will have to pick it up on iPlayer.

    Well what do you know, get taught in DT theory about wind-up radios, and then only a few hours later the man who invented them, Trevor Bayliss, passes away at 80.

      Good job I'm currently teaching myself about pre-grouping locos: their designers are all dead already!

      Not normally Horse, and I was actually notified of his death by the teacher of the lesson. Bayliss wasn't one of your clients was he?

      No. I imagine his Estate wouldn't be as large as it could have been. Shame really.

    Who's doing an all-nighter tonight?

      Andy I envy you. I've got to spend most of the day tomorrow on the frozen Yorkshire Moors. And nowhere near the NYMR. But have the rest of you been asleep for the past two months?

      Never stayed up all night for an election, whole thing bores me rigid. Once I've voted (which I always do), I'm happy to wait for the announcement the following morning.

      Crewe station ? Not do one there since the 70's, expect it will be a lot quieter now.

  5. Liam

    will be looking forward to hearing all the Warley announcements via here tomorrow morning. In the meantime, time to start saving for next year . . .

      Same here, bit too far to get to so I'll be keeping an eye on things on here over here...

    wishes those cows would shut up - they've been at it since 6pm and they sound like they're just outside when they're actually half a mile away!

      The joys of the countryside, we get the smell of the fields not the noise but that doesn't wake us up...

      Probably had their calves shipped off to market - they "call" them for about 48 hours - lucky you!

  7. Liam

    wonders where the next announcement will come from.

      And frequently "mis-speaks" then retracts the announcement about the announcment.

    would like to take the opportunity now to wish all the good folk of RMweb a very merry Christmas; hope Santa brings what everyone's asked for!

      Santa is unlikely to bring an EP for the 158, or even CADs...

  9. Liam

    Wow, the new header photo of Kensal Green looks very atmospheric, especially the Castle on the lifting jack. :)

      Isn't that the UKs new missile defence system?

    You’ve got to really hate being kept on hold....

      Your call is important to us... bug not important enough for us to hire more staff to answer it...
