    Just had a nice drive round the Cotswolds, taking in the good Captain's beloved OWW and the Stratford - Cheltenham line. Not to mention spending £70 on books in the shop at Toddington! Smashing ;o)

      Never mind, you will soon get chance to run on a decent bit of railway ! :P (well done)

    doubled headed Manors in the dark on the SVR last night... magical! Was it really this good back in BR days...?

    Goy my old Rover P6 back on the road at last! Sounds like a Warship on idle ;o)

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      Congrats. P6s are not often seen now, so another one back on the road will be great. One of the P6 prototypes, the Talago, sold at auction recently for £18k!

    Just got back from the GCR 'Eastern Region' gala... feel a sudden urge to purchase black steam locos that have numbers starting with '6'... make it stop!

    1. wiggoforgold

      wiggoforgold

      Sounds perfectly healthy to me. I think you should be more worried if you don't have that urge.

    Don't be shy Beast, post away... ;-)

    1. beast66606

      beast66606

      Will do - later, I have permission to post them all so no problem doing so, just got to remove the chaff and renumber them

  14. Rugd1022

    spent an enjoyable afternoon soaking up the vibes on the North Warks line, before the last semaphores disappear in a couple of weeks time ;o)

  15. Rugd1022

    There's a package waiting for me at our local sorting office, but they're not open till Tuesday...grrr!!

  16. Rugd1022

    On my favourite job all this week, 6M22 and 6M80 Oxford-Stud Farm empties...put the kettle on!

  17. Rugd1022

    Had a cab ride into Paddington today for the first time since 1985... a very strange feeling...!

  18. Rugd1022

    Found my mojo but got no models to do... must rectify the situation ;-)

    RMWeb - can't keep up, can't keep away, can't remember where I've posted or where I read what but by the cringe it's a grand place to be just lately... ;O)

    Thinking of buying some shares in Autoglym - the new (43 year old!) Rover eats polish...!

  23. Rugd1022

    It's all doom and gloom at work, almost putting me off railways altogether... thank 'eavens for RMWeb, an oasis in the mire.

  24. Rugd1022

    Really good to see D7017 on the Glos & Warks this morning, warmed the cockles of the heart so it did...

  25. Rugd1022

    Been told I'll definitely be learning Class 70s at long last... pass the fire extinguisher, quick...! ;O)
