I sympathise, Gordon. When I first drove my old VW transporter back in July this year, the awkward position of the long, floor-mounted gear lever left my shoulder and upper arm aching for days! One of the last trips I did with that van was home - Portsmouth - Evesham - Grimsby - home, 600 miles in 12 hours, getting back at about 4 in the morning (all of our destinations are 24/7 operations, fortunately!) The turbo cut out more times than I can remember, each time needing the ignition to be switched off and back on again to reset it. tedious, to say the least! My boss has just bought a new VW Transporter and I gave it its first 'proper' run this morning. Big improvement with a fully working turbo! It also has the dashboard gear lever but this one seems to feel like a switch; I'm pleased to say it doesn't take too much effort to change gear. Either the LDV change is very bad or my arm's gotten stronger in the last couple of months:icon_winker:

Morning all, Recovering from a great weekend in Utrecht to visit Eurospoor; met some Norwegian guys of similar interest at the hotel and we were passing drinks and snacks around the table in the hotel lounge on their new Piko starter set (Gauge 1) when the clocks went back! Stopped off at RailZ in Rotterdam on the way back; well worth a visit - allow about 2 hours minimum and ask if there's a back-scenes tour as well!) Got back late last evening but had to make a delivery (130 miles round trip) this morning. Can start to wind down now, though, and catch up on the missed posts!(Appreciate your comments about delivery drivers, GordonS!)

Talking of moving, I've just been looking at Video 125's new offering, Bruxelles Midi to St P. Excellent video, interspersed with shots from the various signalling posts too. Be doing that route tomorrow and Sunday for Eurospoor. Have a good weekend, all, and look forward to catching up with the oktas on Monday!
