sir douglas

just got templot, feeling way out of my depth with a screenfull of unknown buttons

just had a nice dog-walking arond oakenshaw south

just had thenovel idea of using a model shipping container as an loco shed

just realised that 16.5mm gauge is closer to 1' 11" in 1:32 scale than 1:43.5

just remembered i need to find out how im getting to Cleckheaton this weekend

just seen a freightliner 86 in their Hunslet yard, Leeds

just seen the same class 73 and 37 on an NR train 3 times today

just sent an email to ask if i can get Trumpet engineering on the Carl arendt website

just spent half an hour looking at how Hs2 will cut through my area

just watched a 67 hauled railtour pass by while i was washing up

just watched Alycidon with a railtour go by while still sat at the computer

just watched Mark Found on youtube, last watched it on video

just watched The glory days of steam: The east coast mainline to scotland. absolutely fantastic footage

just when i have an awesom idea, i get told it was already done in the late 1800's, a mix between a railmotor and deisel-electric

just written up a very long list of things to do on my layout

kitchen window observation of the day: it was nice of DRS to paint one of the 20's in BR blue but not good of GBRF to paint the name plate on a 66 in yellow so you cant read it from over 50ft away

laid and set up an isolation switch for a second shed road on HC

LOOK OUT!

looks like Narrow gauge north will have some great layouts this year

middleton "200" this weekend!

missing out on york show this year to save up for a holiday to wales in the summer

mmm, constant buffer lock related derailling, need to make wider buffer blocks

mmm. asll the wires are in the right place but locos are moving when they shouldnt

mmm. cant buy hack saw blades from wilko witout ID of age, but i can buy drill bits
