    is just about to endure the depressing process of trying to sell a jag xtype 2.1 petrol on ebay. Price will probably be in pence rather than pounds....sob..

    Is now firmly of the opinion that a good deed never goes unpunished. I will NEVER again offer to build an O gauge steam loco chassis for anyone. This one is doing my poxy underpowered brain in

    is recovering after the IOW beer and buses weekend. Plenty of hellfire vintage bus thrash, top pubs and probably way too much excellent cask ale.

      Hellfire vintage bus thrash sounds like a great way to spend a weekend...especially down those country roads!

      Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns, an amalgamaition of Robert Stephenson and Hawthorn Leslie, made GWR Pannier tanks at one time in the 1930s/ 40s

      roythebus

      did you know Vodaphone made steam locos too? when they started about 20 years ago they were known as Hawthorne Leslie Communications, later changing their name to Vodaphone! and the people who empty the "sanitary towel units" used to run trams? they are owned by BET, British Electric Traction!
