  1. 80 years ago today, the Hood went down with the loss of all but 3 of her crew. Gone, but certainly not forgotten. RIP

      I was reading up on her loss recently, very sad and shocking.

  2. I'd forgotten how excellently trippy 'A Forest' by The Cure actually is. :-)

  3. Now I really, really am worried............

  4. If you're in the West Country and get BBC Spotlight you might want to tune in now.... Bit of a fuss about a certain railway about to be broadcast !

      Maybe the gentleman who will have the L&B running past his back door would like to swap his house for mine, where he can 'enjoy' the traffic noise day and night.

  5. Just renumbered my SDJR 7F as LMS 13810 and what do Bachmann do?! ... grrrr

      Good point. Mine just needs varnishing ... I'm sure one of 'L's is leaning a bit, but never mind it's for me. They look so much better in LMS livery than boring BR.

      Thank you. I couldn't find a clear enough photo either, but will go with front of cab cutaway as the Midland 2Ps, 4Fs and Compounds had it in that position.

  8. Masking tape removes varnish from expensive coach. That's it, end of tether reached! Stuff modelling I'm going back on the beer

      It's Tamiya alright, never had any problem with it before, so I think I'll blame the guy who varnished the coach (not me btw!)

  11. What to renumber next?!

      No, no, no, it has to be Southern this time. As it turned out: 34104 Bere Alston, before rebuilding
