    Tim V commented on ullypug's blog entry in Clevedon WC&PR

    Hopefully not too many shows Andrew for the coming year! Other priorities? Hope to be down on the 12th to see the layout.

      Lots of brownie points could have been gained if the repair had been effected on christmas day

    Obligatory at Christmas in the 70s, Flying Scotsman's last run, and here it is on http://www.bbc.co.uk/archive/steamtrains/7307.shtml

      Good stuff, Tim. For me, another 'obligatory' railway-related TV programme was 'The Signalman' by Charles Dickens, starring Denholm Elliot

    The survival of equipment at Festiniog station was remarkable, I first saw the derelict station in the mid 70s, then in the 80s. When I last went there in the 90s, the fouling bar on the (removed) Up facing point was still there. Virtually everything else had gone.

    To back up others, that is too big for a lamp hut, it is a lock up. I have a feeling the standard lamp hut is below the deminimus limit for the OS, i.e. it was too small for them to bother surveying.

      I trust they're wearing hi-vis on this dark night - unless perhaps they're following a very bright star?

    I was saying to Captain Kernow only the other day "there are other railways than the S&D", he wouldn't listen....

      There may well be other railways, but they are not S&D railways.

    The church is possibly yes, but not the Bank of England and Norwich union building, surely?

    Not much change here, Post & Press and the IBM building, and Clerical Medical, the cars and that bus: The foot bridges: And the Severn Beach train.

    Quite a natty little miller there, I don't recognise the make, what is it? Need to fix it down of course, probably best after decorating the cellar....

    The building round Mary-le-Port church was still derelict, but intact today...

    Yes, so I've heard. I had a Marina a long time ago, a C**p ar!
  22. Tim V
    Final batch. Is that a Vauxhall Chevette and a fast back Marina in the picture?

    It's the same name Jerry, there is at least a slim connection?
