    Morning folks,

     

    We'll just leave this here... 🤭

    Make sure you pop by, to see our (almost, we have amended the headcode font and fit) final production sample on the stand. 

     

    A full update will follow in the coming days. 😎

    A genuine 'wow' looking at that - I can almost hear it coming towards me, passing through the carriage washer at Old Oak on its way up to Padd with a rake of empty Mk1s... wrong number for an Old Oak machine of course but you get the picture.

     

    Fabulous!

    Labour's plans for the railways

    in UK Prototype Discussions (not questions!)

    Posted · Edited by Rugd1022

    Nothing will really change 'on the ground', it's another Labour pipedream which won't really go anywhere. As a railwayman, a former Labour voter and a member of a trade union which used to be the most militant on the planet I ought to be onboard with it, but I still don't believe a word of it. Starmer is as deluded now as he was the day he became 'leader'. It'll no doubt keep the already converted onside coming up to the election, but I'm not convinced at all that it will improve the railway as a whole, either short or long term.

    Just a quick note to say, for those of us who have not seen every episode of The Sweeney, it is starting again on I.T.V. 4, Monday, 22d April:

     

    https://www.radiotimes.com/programme/b-fyec17/the-sweeney/

     

    Queenstown Road Battersea station makes an appearance, I believe...  This is part of the 'eternal loop' alternating with The Professionals.

     

    Peckham Rye station appears in the first episode 'Ringer', with Dennis Waterman chasing a petty villain along the platform.

     

    (It's fifty years this month since the pilot episode 'Regan' was shot!)
