      Hi Andi

       

      I know mates just talking together. :drinks:  I ran a rebuilt Patriot with six LMS coaches behind it, and a B17 with four Thompson coaches behind it tonight as I done some modelling. I have now filed all the main windows to size as I convert a Tri-ang Sleeper coach to a SK. I also listened to the last weeks new releases as suggested by Spotify. This is one the best this week.

       

       

      I hope you and Sheena are OK.

      What do you mean "toy trains"?

       

      Surely it's all "precision models" - and "serious research", presumably into all the vitally important details, such as exactly how many rivets were fitted to a specific loco (and precisely where they were fitted).

       

      There's also the critical matter of how much fun operating potential is offered by various layouts, loco / stock combos and whatever else.

       

      I probably shouldn't add this - but, when I was much younger, it wasn't exactly unknown for me to use the "serious research" term to describe mucking round with thoroughly testing radio controlled buggies - throwing them round ridiculously tight "doughnuts", "figure 8s" and all manner of other stuff nobody would ever be allowed to try with a real, full sized, car.

       

      Saying that, though, it was great fun I'm sure I must have learnt a lot from all of this stuff - if nothing else, that I'd never want to drive like that in real life. (No prizes for guessing that my driving licence has always been clean.)

       

       

      Anyway, that's more than enough of my thread hijack. Back to the trains (and whatever else).

      I'm rather sad there is less deep intellectual discussion about Jenny Agutter these days.
