      The one thing about nostalgia is hearing about the bands you'd never heard of....

  8. A bit pigged off - I had 666 likes on my postings this morning, now someones gone and and ruined it by liking another post. Why can't I stick on 666?

      Surely you'll need to convert it to P4 for the new layout Andy, I'll see if I can find a photo of one at North Ballahulish.... Eh, nop...

      Okay, and I might let you gently trundle it round Wharfeside in 2014, if it's finished then. The layout not the loco....

      Wish i could be there to buy you all a drink for putting on an excellent show last weekend. Mind you been a Yorkshireman i would have had to limit it to half a pint each.
