Very good. ;)

Very nice @Iskra. I love bubble cars and like you say it’ll look at home on your layout.

I think that’ll work well with the coal, there’s definitely enough room to do a thin stage. Or you could do a bigger one and have it removable maybe? Just have it on when you’re running trains?

Excellent.

Oh god this one. The modern equivalent of “Computer says no.” “I’m sorry about the delay sir. Our entire system went down this afternoon…” Right. Get a piece of paper, scrunch it into a little ball, stuff it up your nose and sing the (insert country of your choice) Tongan National anthem...

I got it sorted in the end but then had to go out for a spur of the moment curry with Mrs C as therapy. ;)

Renewing your car insurance (or basically anything these days) when you’ve got limited time in the evenings and well, just please make it actually work before I throw the phone across the room.

I must say that there’s some very nice looking ballast going down there and your experiment has been interesting. :) 1635264215 I really like the track layout especially around the shed. It’s always good to have a couple of outside stabling roads the way you’ve got it set up.

It’s an amazing railway. I love the way he’s caught the bleak nature of the season and place.

Yeah I’ll give it a try but I think I might need to set a crowd funding page. :lol: @Iskra - both coaches look lovely but the job TMC have done on the blood & custard LNER one has really bought the detail out hasn’t it?

Exactly that @gg1 .

There’s some good stuff in your list. A couple more to add from preservation sector: Class 15 D8233 in red stripe Railfreight livery… https://www.flickr.com/photos/adogriff/4682929113 And Hymek D7017 in ‘Dutch’. Not a fan of fictional liveries usually, but this looked really good...

I don’t think I’ll be renumbering it…

I’ll go with this: https://www.flickr.com/photos/robertcwp/14748010617/ From this thread: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/interesting-rarities-that-made-it-into-br-blue.214061/
