    I remember something on the telly a while back, some years or so, about homemade Christmas presents. One of the more creative concepts was a Gauge one model that ran on... a garden hose, yes not track of any kind but a garden hose. Needless to say it wasn't for the serious minded, but as a concept it makes fantastic sense, rather than investing in track packs and going miles out of town for a few bob you can have miles and miles of running space. That wasn't the most revolutionary feature, the direction of the engine was changed by depressing the hose in front of it. I haven't the fogiest how it was ment to handle points or shunting, but I would personal pay vast sums to visit an exhibition and watch people try it.

    A design simlar to the fell once cropped up in my imaginations, a disscussion between an Artist and an Aleneian Civil servant. The Artist complained that the design was blinding passengers. The Civil Servant pointed out that it was senseless for form to overtake function. Not if the form is Public health issue retorted the Artist. The Civil Servant stated that what really mattered was there were passengers getting on the trains, the condition of their sight was irrelavent. The Artist accused the Civil Servant of being a Fascist The Civil Servant accused the Artist of Being a Communist The Artist indicated that he had cardinal knowlege of the Civil Servants wife. The Civil servant indicated that the object approaching the Artist's face was his fist. The matter was not disscussed again.

    He was standing in the rubble of an old farmhouse outside Birmingham, when some on the scene reporter stuck a camera in the face of that old man. He said tell the folks please mister, what are you gonna do, now that this twister has taken all thats dear to you. The old man just smiled and said, boy let me tell you something...

    How about a layout with all stock being "Never Weres" set in an entirely fictitious location. Or one were Rompsons pacifics haul endless scrapies of A3/4s? ScR

    Re: the Class 20, one thing that might make more sense that a cab at the other end, would be building dedicated "slave units" I.E. cabless type ones for simple raw power, with this an entire lash up of two or four units could be controlled by one source, a single '20'. BTW: I've said it before but, an EWS clayton anyone? ScR

    I would recomend to anyone who wants to seriously model something out of the ordinary to invest in a copy of Robin Barnes 'Locomotives that never were'. Its a fantastic read for those long winter nights. Edit:04/02/12 I've been looking at the V4 design and I've been wondering whether it could be modified to take a slightly longer boiler and a leading Four-wheel bogie, to give you a nice looking A9 light pacific.
