      Could it be that the names were needed because extreme weather events were getting more frequent and have continued to do so?

  15. England cricket...do they have coaches? Fundamental errors...

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      As far as I can see English Cricketers treat overseas tours as paid-for holidays with a little light cricketing thrown in.

      Was the Black 5 44806 formaly known as Magpie? Would have been a nice coincidence.

      RedgateModels

      The Magpie is a waste of time IMHO, there are better and cheaper chippys in Whitby

      Sorry Ian - wrong - the variations they do and the portions they sell are very good.. and yes one of the locos was 44806 ... took 20 minutes to get in then service was excellent..
