  2. Vulcan just lapped Chippenham 4 times. Manages a couple of photos on the final pass too. Nice!

  3. Photographing a train on the way home from work, that two hours previously I'd prepared and examined. Satisfying :-)

  4. Tomorrows job is to find myself a van, my options are hinksey, westbury or hoo!! Where do i go?

  5. Rules passed today. Can I call myself a railwayman now? :-D

      They sure are good! Make a nice topping in a burger off the BBQ with a bit of lettuce and coleslaw during the warmer months

  9. 66414 ia no longer that nice shade of blue and is now a powerful 66! Must say i'm dissapointed, I did really like that livery!

      I'm surprised the plain blue one got repainted before the others still carrying a rival operators corporate colours!

  11. DB 143 and a push pull set both won on Ebay tonight for a very fair price. Will it be the start of a German layout? Hmmmm

      Yup, both Arnold. Perhaps one of those APA boxes I have stashed away will find a use...

  12. DB has a lot to answer for. Why am I getting ideas for a layout filled with 143s, 146s and other such locos on double deck stock! Photos from K

  13. Every day the infernal ipad does more to wind me up. Current favourite trick is the blue loading bar on the internet sitting at about 10% for no apparent reason. Either magically resolves after 5 minutes or so, or you need to turn it off and back on. I presume the apple fan boys don't get issues like this...

      Ah gotcha Michael....that's another of my annoyances!

      Internet is fine lol...the phone and laptop were both on wifi. Had it happen while I've been on xbox live before, and that's the most sensitive device in the house when it comes to connectivity

  16. So......I'll be in Berlin next Tuesday and will be picking up a loco at the same time. Has anyone got a model shop recommendation whilst I'm there ?

  17. Anyone else out there play racing games? Am I the only one who really hates reverse versions of real tracks?

    1. Steadfast

      Steadfast

      That's the game I was playing! They just don't seem to flow as well in reverse, and when was the last time you saw the BTCC tackle Brands Hatch in reverse?

  18. My least favourite part of respraying a Farish 60...painting the light clusters black always seems to take far longer than it should

  19. Why has my Windows phone decided to tell me it is Independence Day tomorrow? Am I supposed to celebrate not being an American?

    1. Steadfast

      Steadfast

      Mine doesn't have it on the calendar?There's not a setting somewhere that's set to English (US) is there?

      It does make me laugh though the way it'll say 'Bank Holiday' Today - All day. Errr, yes that's the point of a bank holiday!

      Agree with that! Though this little bit, about 6ft by 3ft, slatted and topped with a mattress is quite nice ;-)

  23. Had my sign off at work today. Apparently I know what I'm talking about. That was a genuine surprise! More importantly, time for some modelling now it's done :-)

  24. The great train robbery on BBC 1, absolutely fantastic.

  25. What engine do I go for first a sound chipped farish 60,37,47 ? Hmm

    1. Steadfast

      Steadfast

      Can you make the ground shake like a real class 60 in N? Massive bass speaker under the layout? :-) The English Electric roar of the 37 is such a classic and seems to reproduce well on sound chips
