  1. I hope you're getting a huge discount from the building material supplier especially with the amount already in the garden.

    I knew it couldn't last. Andy with one layout being built slowly. I just expected it to be a bit further into the year though.
  3. After reading this, my day has gone from terrible to being virtually unable to type as I'm laughing too much
  4. When are the train companies going to start putting enough carriages on in the morning. Couldn't even get on my train
  5. Morning all. Clear and chilly here and none of the promised rain or sleet. Hope the trains are on time today for a change.
  6. Bit late in the day I know, but, happy birthday
  7. Raining in town and I've not seen a single bus walking from VIC to work
  8. Decided to get an earlier train to avoid problems and that was nearly 10 minutes late. Maybe today isn't going to be that good
  9. Morning all. Windy but dry at the moment but according to the forecast due to be very wet again today. Although nothing new is reported on the trains so far. It could be a difficult journey for many with the bus strike and the ongoing work at LBG. Just hoping it doesn't cause too many problems.
  10. Morning all. Sad to hear this news, Richard. Windy and chilly outside but at least it's dry (until later) Having looked at Southern's site this morning, it looks like more people than usual are going to have their journeys disrupted.
  11. Absolutely no modelling achieved this weekend, apart from checking the threads I follow, everything else got in the way. To make up for it Bitton, The Mill, Dent, Bakewell and even though it wasn't modelling, KL2 made progress.
  12. I have to agree with you and Andy. I'm going to need 20 - 30

    Andy. Can you slow down please. At this rate you'll be on shed number 4 before any of us have a chance to build anything
  14. Just had a look and he was active on RMWeb this morning at 10:40

    As I remember it, training should be done in a logical sequence. Therefore, the recruits need to be drilled in the efficient and safe eating of hotdogs

    It looks like the Baron is back An amazing speed and what an improvement in the quality of track, especially as Jason says, with a full length train. If you don't slow down you'll be finished before Jeff gets the first rain forest in the den.

    My day will have to be tomorrow then :jester:
  18. Extremely windy on the way to the station but at least my train was on time again. I must still be asleep
  19. Morning All. Dark, chilly and windy here. Not as bad as it was during the night though. Southern are reporting no incidents this morning apart from the ongoing problems with LBG. Last day of the week and looking forward to a relaxing weekend
  20. Looks good to me (after having to look on the interweb). I hope you do get the modification printed, BTW, you could sell the plans to Jeff (via Jason)
  21. Another day with the train I'm using is on time. I just hope that all ER's travelling today have a similar experience
  22. Morning all. Dark and dry at the moment and hoping that my travel arrangements go as well as yesterday. I feel sorry for the people going into LBG. This is the latest from Southern. London Bridge Network Rail and Southern apologise to you for the unacceptable disruption and delays at London Bridge this week resulting in severe overcrowding on the concourse. This is not the level of service that you deserve, expect or that we want to deliver. Over the festive break Network Rail undertook 16 days of work rebuilding two new platforms, removing and replacing 3km of track and installing new signalling into London Bridge. This work was completed on time. However, the new timetable has proved challenging to manage so we have reviewed this and made some immediate changes to a small number of evening peak services which will reduce the pressure on the infrastructure and help us to deliver an improved service. The following services from London Bridge will not run this evening, or for the remainder of this week: 16.36 London Bridge to West Croydon 17.06 London Bridge to West Croydon 17.38 London Bridge to West Croydon 18.06 London Bridge to West Croydon 18.36 London Bridge to West Croydon We apologise, this was not an easy decision but we needed to act quickly and passengers using the above services do have reasonable alternatives. Passengers requiring Anerley and Penge West should take a Southern service to New Cross Gate and change for London Overground services. Alternatively, tickets will be accepted on London Underground between London Bridge and Canada Water for a change to London Overground services. We will monitor the service for the remainder of this week and assess if any longer term changes are required. As a result of the above changes, three services into London Bridge are also withdrawn: 17.12 West Croydon to London Bridge 17:42 West Croydon to London Bridge 18.13 West Croydon to London Bridge We have reviewed with Network Rail, the operation of the station concourse, placed more staff at London Bridge, and implemented additional crowd control measures to separate passengers entering and exiting trains. By the end of the week, we will have additional passenger information screens, so the concourse is used more evenly.
  23. Definitely worried now. Train on time for the second day and somewhere to sit. Maybe today is going to be a good day
  24. Morning all. A little bit chilly here with a touch of frost and allegedly no problems with the trains.
