  1. Spoilers for todays episode: The Mole
  2. Interesting to note that No.12 'Sarah Siddons' as preserved in Metropolitan Railway livery has become No. 5 'John Hampden' as preserved in London Transport livery. Heljan would have to pay a license for the use of any TfL owned trademarks such as "Metropolitian" and "London Transport".
  3. Looks like 'Trapped In The Sky' has been remade. For me todays episode felt better paced although there were still some niggles (although the target audience wouldn't care). I think that in the first episode the plot took a bit of a backseat as all of the major characters and the Thunderbird craft, along with respective launch sequences, had to be introduced in the 45 minutes.
  4. Reggie and Thunderbirds - No Strings Attached on itvplayer https://www.itv.com/itvplayer/reggie-thunderbirds-no-strings-attached/series-1/episode-1-reggie-amp-thunderbirds-no-strings-attached I noticed it the titles in the background for Lady Penelope, you have the well known London attractions: the London Eye, the ITV studios and the Elizabeth Tower.
  5. Looking at the numbers they are models of preserved autocoaches, W228W (Maroon) is based at the South Devon Railway and W231 (Crimson & Cream) is based at Didcot Railway Center
  6. The Baldwin locos have a RRP of £144.95 on the Bachmann website.
  7. Catching up on RMWeb after a weekend at K&WVR. 25 pages on 'View New Content'. Glad I didn't leave it until after 1pm.

  22. The Stationmaster didn't request the information, a potential customer who may or may not be reading this thread about Oxfordrail asked a question in a thread about your kits.
  23. The last verse of poem as it is: How did he look - was he strong. Did he die, or am I wrong? The truth is there for me to find. And so this story will unwind.
