I still can’t cancel mine, getting the 500 error I have emailed Rails to say this and my intended outcome Btw only cancelling it because at the price for the Blue one I cannot justify the cost against a loco that would become LMS on an LNER layout as for that autocar though.... we shall see

I am just getting 500 errors from the link in the email and it doesn't show via my normal Rails account to do anything with, shall keep trying though

Wondering if the Hornby Railroad LNER A4 chassis would go under the old 90's era Hornby body... (both full streamlining)

My only question to the creators is why at the expense of Henry and Edward? Now it is CGI they are but 0's & 1's so why can't they steam past in the background (saving on voice overs for them) I think that the point really is that children don't actually care about something until they are told they should do so, for example I during my teen years I started watching became obsessed with Red Dwarf it was only in recent years when someone mentioned it realised that half the cast of 4 (not including computers) aren't white. Now this didn't and still doesn't bother me but the point I am trying to make is that the target audience probably doesn't care, reading through this thread I see someones daughter liked the new characters but because one of them was in her favourite colour which further supports my point, any virtuous message about being inclusive will pass over the average demographics head as hopefully no one has pointed it out to them that they should view others differently. Another example is I was very lucky in meeting 4 former Tuskegee Airmen at a Duxford Airshow, again to my young it hasn't been pointed out mind I didn't see any reason to think of them any differently to any other veteran and surely it is that type of mind we should be striving for in this world rather than one that is obsessing over our differences?

Great shots Annie! Did some more work to Ashgrove today in T:ANE - unfortunately none of which is at the stage where I am happy to show you all yet but suffice that there is a second station now Some screenshots taken during testing at the Ashgrove end The L77 class 0-6-2T brings it's rake of four six wheelers in Arriving at Ashgrove Running around the train before returning to Appleford Afterwards a S46 charged with 4 bogey coaches comes in and I find that the platform runaround room is at it's limits but works OK! S46 No.1880 blending in with the locals feeling blue!

That livery is really suiting the AB! -
To keep myself keen for the upcoming SE&CR real world model railway I had a bit of a play in Trainz: A New Era on my Highland Branch O1 Class shunting goods stock at Ness H Tank on the local using Birdcage stock waits at Ahyr, any ideas on when this coach livery was introduced? The O1 runs light back to Loch Felkirk Where it picks up empty stock to move to the carriage sidings at Pearcross The H departs Ness for Loch Felkerk Running across the level crossing at Lock Felkerk Where it detaches to take on water... ....and coal, looks like someone found a lamp for it here too! Meanwhile the O1 arrives at Pearcross with the empty stock movement Morag the Station cat at Loch Felkerk isn't entirely sure about this 'foreign' engine at her station! As the O1 arrives as well she is definitely not happy! The P has shunted the empty stock into the sidings Some shed scenes at Pearcross Ahh that's better Morag purrs before going off to victimise....sorry pester the signalman for her dinner After sometime the O1 passes by the shed at Loch Felkerk with another down goods towards Achfairy Christopher

Best way of getting to Mornington Cresent is to use the Northern Line Charing Cross branch, but you all knew that already!

Some shots from a WiP route in Trainz: A New Era called Little Ashgrove created basically to test the operational quality of the track plan, though I will complete the scenics. The black lines denote baseboard edges on the layout LNWR Super D Crosses the river into the station area with a loaded (pretend) coal train for the mill steam engine Arriving in the platform at Little Ashgrove Running around the train Meanwhile the Mill Shunter brings loaded vans into the exchange sidings The Super D moves it's train into the loop to await the first passenger train of the days arrival into the station Seeing out the end of it's life 'Havelock' one of the Problem Class 2-2-2's brings its train of mixed 4 & 6 wheelers into the station Blimey they have given me the engine Noah took onto the Ark thinks the Station Master after all he has just been reading about the new 2-4-2T that would suit "his" branch line nicely in his opinion. The D propels it's train into the exchange sidings before uncoupling and attaching the vans ready to return to Buxton from where they will be sent to all for corners of the country and beyond! (well the goods inside will) Having run around Havelock's crew observe the D leaving for Buxton while they pray that their engine will last the day, or at the very least the return journey With a bout of wheelslip as the big driving wheels fail to get traction initially the Problem class gets underway and leaves Little Ashgrove hopefully to return another 3 times before days end. Meanwhile the Mill's 0-4-0ST plods steadily along it's short track into the sidings where they will be unloaded and the coal will feed the great Lancashire Boiler that provides the steam to the engine that runs the whole mill. P.S. what would the more learned amongst us say the easiest LMS constituent to model in the pre-grouping era is in N gauge? or indeed the easiest to do in N in terms of R-T-R support? I ask for a friend......
