6959 Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 I spent an hour or so offline sorting a set of 12 pctures of complete rake and then spent time attaching photo's to this post. The pictures were listed in the correct order but displayed out of sequence. As I was sorting this out RMWeb looged me out and all got lost. I shall not bother again but if anyone wants these photo's I can send them by email. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim H Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Is there still a Mk2 TSO in that rake? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steadfast Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Certainly in the Taffy Tug 2 formation it was all mk1. Whether anything was added or removed at Barton Hill for the steam runs I don't know The rule about a non mk1 vehicle at the end of a rake was removed a year or two back jo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
