    Think it may be a A13 Mk.III Cruiser Mk.V Covenanter (Only has 4 driving wheels, Crusader had 5). This was the predecessor of the Crusader. https://www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/gb/A13-III_Cruiser_MkV_Covenanter.php

    Just been looking through some old slides and came across these from late 70's/early 80's from the North Norfolk Railway GER Y14 564, LNER J15 7564 and a cabriolet B12 (aka 8572 in the re-making)

    Maybe the driver had just dropped his packet of Polos.

    Kings Cross I guess? Going to loose a few hours on that site. Do the "Advanced Search", with years from 1830 to 1900 and Railways as keyword!

Would also put the terminus building on the main road. Exit out a tunnel straight into the station! (Where have I seen idea this before???)

    What about coming along the River Yare instead

    Well, looking at Babingley on Wiki, (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babingley) St Felix was the first Christian church in Norfolk. A legend claims that Felix was shipwrecked on the River Babingley but a colony of beavers saved him from drowning, so in gratitude Felix consecrated the chief beaver as a bishop. The village sign records the legend, showing a beaver wearing a bishop's mitre, ministering to other beavers. A shrine to Beavers, you couldn't make it up any better!

    Not sure if it's come up before, (quick search say's no!) but there is a ruined church to St Felix about 1.5 mile SSE of Wolferton Copyright Gintaras Girdzius https://goo.gl/maps/VGQDG839qLxcMxQT6

    Just went back to look at page 1 and came across the picture of the old Drill Hall, instantly reminded of the buildings at St Wilfreds Priory in Arundel. https://goo.gl/maps/6uXr5KBepKisXnr7A

    Just been looking at Anthony Dawson's webpage and saw this future release. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Grand-Crimean-Central-Railway/dp/1445671042/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1549816048&sr=1-2&fbclid=IwAR25ALJno_AJWMe-NZZgqzStIUH2YxIMhfscVjAntJ8JIYhPJTqlTSx0xJs

    Just going through some old slides and came across these ones of "Lion" from the early 80s. Thought they'd be of interest on here. Think they were taken at Keighley and Worth Valley.

    Guess there would be more in a run. That would allow for rejects, paint/printing testing, QA checking, etc.
  24. Shadow
    According to Hornby, there's also these two!

    Found this old cutting in a scrapbook whilst clearing out. Instantly thought of this thread. Edit-not sure why Annie's quote is there. Can't seem to be able to remove it.
