  1. Jeez, I'm learning a whole new language...mermaids, dogs, catfish, duff jacks.
  2. It seems it was not a good career move to stand next to a Mermaid. How often did they tip over?
  3. One thing the info sheet doesn't tell me is what MRA stands for. What does it mean?
  4. Also found this really interesting info sheet about the MRA Side-Tipping Ballast Wagons. MRA Side-Tipping Ballast Wagons.pdf
  5. Looks like a really nice model. That's my Christmas present sorted!!
  6. Thank you all. This is really fantastic. Love the video! Dapal did produce a 5 bogie set in the grey/blue livery, Dapol B859B, but it is no longer produced. However, I have managed to find an unopened set and have taken the plunge and purchased it!! Whoppee!!
  7. My neighbor is one of the train drivers at Swanage. Do you want me to ask him for more details? If so, specifically what?
  8. Does anyone recognise the type of self-unloading hopper shown in the attached photo? And is there a model on the market? Note that the side unloading door tilts out from the top rather than lifting up from the bottom.
