Nah - they just waved so I gave them a blast on the Disastro horn.

Ooh ooh ........... saved a life today

He was in the 4ft - so I blew the horn loudly for ages at about 7am and he just managed to get out of the way.

Dumb pheasant ! :lol:

ONLY a steamer?!?! ONLY a steamer!?!?
You should wash your mouth out with soap boy!
Steamers are quality traction! Especially a certain LMS Princess Coronation class (6233 Duchess of Sutherland :D).




Oh, and 67's are quality too! :D
Raise your hand if you've had a Royal 67 on the Royal Train??? *raises hand*

Beat that, nobodies! :D











I'll get me coat. I can show myself out thanks.

Must admit - you can't beat Leander or Bananas (Bahamas) in Crimson Lake but I don't really like anything with ear muffs such as Sutherland and Clan Line.

Flying Sctosman with them on just looks like a big puff(er) :lol:

And I think they should be in their original livery too. You wouldn't restore an old car then spray it in the same colour that some 17 year old did and add furry dice now would you?

You would? :shock:

6233 IS in her original livery - LMS Crimson Lake with her LMS number and LMS power classification. And she's currently in the condition in which she was back in 1946.

Yes, our LMS engine is goin Down Sarf to show all you Southern Pansies how it's done on the REAL railway.
We are heading the PMR Tours Cuneo Centennial from Landin Wa'erloo - Yovul Junction and return. I should be on this on the sales team, with a bit of luck, so if you would like to sort this Big Four Problem out with me face-to-face, seek me out and bring it on beatch! :p

A SUZLER will do me nicely.

The Kettle can have usual Boiler Failure to allow for some proper Haullage and not that useless thing that heats a bit of water then decides it had enough. It's like a Grandma, can't go more than 100 yards without collapsing outside of Sainsbury's.

Get a pair of 26s on the case and you'll have them standing on the roof, gasping at the Clag and not soot flying into your eyes.
