    Metropolitan Line and A stock

    hey guys, Had a great few days in London many thanks for advice on where to go what to do. Managed to get 67 stock and A stock but also have to admit I'm very impressed with the S stock they look the part and are very comfortable. Looking at yer posts and comments before I went I really had...

    Good stuff tks for that Mojo. Links could be said a little better, what I meant was how many trains are required to provide a full service? Thanks for answering hope I'm able to catch some now.

    Metropolitan Line and A stock

    Guys really appreciate all the info, Just wondering how many links are there on the Victoria line? If I stayed at Blackhorse Road for about an hour waiting to catch a train towards Brixton would it be likely to catch one? Yay or nay? Tks again guys, really helping.

    Asking the RPSI to preserve a Class 80

    The guys who bought the 141s are far from being millionaires! Similar to the lads over in the UK who regularly set up preservation groups and societies. That's always the problem with setting up and funding groups, I for one would be very interested and would join as a member if you formed such...

    Asking the RPSI to preserve a Class 80

    Wouldn't agree with either of ye lads. When a full rake of blue cravens is up and fully operational behind a GNR steam loco such as no.85 at full belt on one of the mainlines it'll be something to see. I'm not so sure about the livery at the moment and i think somebody inside the RPSI with...

    GCR Voulenteering??

    Hey guys, I'd be relatively new to the board. Great little intro's by a few people there into how volunteering works and how quickly you can expect to get through the grades, I'm in Ireland and work with a preserved railway run more like a business though unfortunately. I was thinking of maybe...
