I'll stop here, I'm giving my age away

I can assure anyone the service won't be happening before December at the very earliest there is over 100 drivers and the same guatds to learn the route and that's just New St depot.

I've heard a rumour that our depot won't be learning it so that's telling us we won't have cross city on our route card for long. And when it comes to OHLE being put up the Rugeley route well behind schedule I can't see that happening this year.

According to a speaker from Network Rail at the local Rail User Group Meeting last month, driver training will take 12 weeks . The first train is expected to run on 29th July

Frozen Jubblies, suck out the orange and be left with a lump of ice to lob.....

Indeed these kits have been around for a good while. I had a go at building a few and I nearly lost heart with kit building as I could not, however carefully I assembled them, get the sides square. Then someone pointed out that the floor was in fact a couple of centimetres wider than the ends!

Trimming the floor helped!

I am building the Ratio LMS 4 plank wagon at the moment and the floor in that is longer than the sides!

I suppose they just get the ratios wrong.
