RMweb Gold beast66606 Posted January 31, 2011 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 31, 2011 Cheers. Rochdale show next weekend so all is quiet, after that things should start ramping up, I've identified a train to replace one of the existing sets, so that will be under way (at Rochdale too), our Grand Central HST is to be replaced by a more appropriate HST, and other bits and bobs are being done, re-assembling the "sonded" 170s is a priority.
