CovDriver

new buy and sell is just a maze, bring back the old straight forward option

We're working on it; try not to get too bent out of shape about it. When it's running as intended it'll do a lot more than Classifieds ever could.

Trying to make a 'Railway Ebay' is an extremely hard task, and I'm afraid to say (currently) the RMweb team haven't quite managed to.

Nice one

Congrats

Thank you everyone in now waiting for the handling stage as we are short of instructors at our depot if your travelling between Birmingham and Northampton soon you might want get the next train as it could be me

Well done !

As a former LM employee, well done! I assume 350s and 153s will be your basic traction at Cov.

153's for toplink only I'm afraid as far as I know it'll be 350's & 323's

Cheers everyone looks like the next course will be in August, better get my modelling room sorted by then.

My phone is always switched off while I'm on duty

There aren't that many people who can say they are doing what they want to do - good luck

Well done that man !

Many thanks for all your kind words and comments

In the shed, more like the dog house when SWMBO finds out!! Welcome to the Scottish model railway owners club

just tell her

Tried that but I'm in the doghouse or hamster house in this case !!

Why not? Teach them at an early age and take plenty of money with you. Oh and at least a couple of pairs of knickers and a plastic bag!

Otherwise known as "training" …

Good advice there Judge, but what about the child's spare keks and absorbers.

Try to blend in......

I've gone for Jon020 suggestion rescheduled for next Wednesday hopefully they wont risk running steam with this heat down here and bring out the 50 or the 37 !!

Enjoy the Hog roast that's also there...

Nice one! Im guaranteed to get in your way at some point

I thought a cover drive was something you did in cricket.

To impress your new owners then Col. CCFC fans can use the Ricoh station too !

Wait still you are exoected to take sushi for your grub break - then you'll know!

You might have to learn the company morning exercise routine though!

Cheers guys our D.I said the same thing all being well should have a 350 conversion course in the new year and start my handling end of January as for my modelling I've become a bit of a rivet counter (well I will do once I get some modelling time)!!

Bring back the good old days when you were a second man and the driver would let you have a go. The only way to learn.

Definitely best to be out there to drive and learn. Theory is all well and good but must be applied.

Congrats !

Cov Guard - ignore deleted status comment! Posted in wrong place

No probs newbryford

Cheers Jim I thought as much

That would de a lot of repaints!

other wibble this week.....another 70 on the way (but thats plausable)

Wandsworth

i had to do temp block working with one of my trainees while he was doing his hours with me, very useful for him

There seems to be a major aversion on the part of some operators to back shunting, these days.

The GCR would like to appologise for the delay to this wedding....

Good luck. Don't throw too much confetti under the spam, the wheel slip will be horrendous!

Congrats. Hope the day is all that you imagine and beware of smuts. (I said smuts.....)

Dont give up now you know whats wrong have another go

It's gone to a grievance procedure as they shouldn't be recalculating my forms from an old process that I've completed and passed on a new process.

It was a lot easier than this in the Eighties.

I call them shrinkflation cabbages.

I'm having a tattoo done across the base of my spine. It will read "Stand clear the jet pipe".

I suddenly see why the suffragette movement got the vote.

Nah, I'm sure they're much happier on the top of the WCML.

Of course, but I'm sure the owners will want them back at their base.

That's exactly the stage I'm currently at.

My 4mm stuff has all but gone - but then so has my modelling interest

Best move in ever made, less is more...

That explains it...

Well done! Just shows how much LM have relied on people doing overtime just to cover the basic roster.

So true a few depots have had enough now cant really say much more publically but you've hit the nail on the head there Rugd1022

You could of course come to Scaleforum, which has already provided a better class of disappointment for some already....

If I had the day off as I was on early this morning I may have tried to attend maybe next time ?

If there is a next time....

It could be worse. I's always assumed that Hinckley is Coventrys "Coventry". And like you I"m wondering what my bad karma was to deserve this. Of course there is always the possibility that the place has bad karma and deserves the likes of us!!!

Nothing wrong with beduff it's the fare dodging scroats who want to travel for free in the toilet that does my head in!

but there is pretty much everything wrong with Hinckley. P'raps I should move to Beduff and find some ancient legal clause so I can hunt scrotes with dog, horse, gun and, by quirk of law, heavy armour?

Best of luck with your recovery.

Ouch! Get well soon mate!

Cheers guys just got to get some modelling done now.
