looking good, keep it going.

MML don't exist any more and never ran from New Street, so it must have been a ghost train! On a more serious note, NR run New Street and are the ones wearing blue HV vests, if there were none on the platform you'd find them on the concourse and in the Customer Info Booth, also on the concourse. Di...

I was trying to get back from birmingham when it snowed badly a few weeks ago. The main issue we all had was not that our train was only called 30mins late and was meant to be standing on a platform with another train on it. It was the lack of staff available to talk to to actually tell us what was ...

a pleasure to read this thread, a really neat and fun to use layout, you make your progress look effortless. Your writing style is bang on as well, light and humorous yet informative.

Top thread.

senseless, absolutely senseless. Some people just dont understand the possible consequences of their actions, thankfully no deaths occurred. I hope the network rail reward offer brings forward some useful leads. These people deserve a custodial sentence if over 18... if under then possibly a short s...

perhaps they are just relishing the opportunity to review steam tours hauled by a local which was built less that 50 years ago. I'm sure it'll ease of in a year or two.

one place, I definitely wouldn't have wanted to be when that slip happened was on the footplate, I seriously think trouser browning would ensue as the though ohbuggerhbuggerohbuggerohbugger went through my head.

Old coaches may be more comfortable with more spacious seating, then again I would rather have aircon, reduced noise and not having my carriage collapse like tissue paper around me in a crash. Old & simple isn't always good, I believe that Mark I's also have a tendency of splitting away from the...

definitely alot of snow there, hopefully a thaw soon

looks good mate, keep up the good work

truly gob smacked, real engineering that is

as usual the quality of your work is brilliant. I really look forward to seeing how this extension pans out.

I really do like your layout alot, alot to play with and your kit building\scenery are really good.

That hill side and canal scene will look amazing when finished off, proper job
