RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted March 15, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15, 2012 Looks like there's an awful lot of top air going into that firebox, somebody doesn't like the boilersmith? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PhilH Posted March 15, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) I was in between berets at the time..... Looks like there's an awful lot of top air going into that firebox, somebody doesn't like the boilersmith? Flaps up when it's working, no problem, and it was only on about 23% so not working that hard.. Edited March 15, 2012 by PhilH 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Morning All, A slightly misty morning here. It also looks like it is going to be another busy day. The choke knob lock failing on Mini's was a common fault. The clothes peg trick is a well known one! I don't have that problem with mine - it's automatic choke! Have a good day everyone... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBradley Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Hello all it's Friday again. Where doe time go? Saw the surgeon yesterday ad he doesn't need to see me agin until/unless circumstances change. i.e. I get my 'diabetic shoe' The shoe man happened to phone yesterday cancelling my appointment for 20th as shoe will not be ready. Cooler weather, 24/22C but still lovely! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Sounds like moderately good news, Don. Do you only get one shoe? Presently recruiting team of divers and white water raftsmen to collect table tennis balls (not really). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted March 16, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 16, 2012 Morning all. Weather is somewhere between misty and overcast. I don't think it will be as warm as yesterday. Dd, is there a splendid prize for the fastest ball to the sea? Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I don't think so, Tony - otherwise I'd be buying up 'pirate' ping pong balls and releasing them further downstream. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debs. Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Ay`up......morning all! The tide tables say it`s a good day for a 'walkies' down at the strand.........happy dogs: happy Debs.! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted March 16, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 16, 2012 Morning all, clear and cool today, the dog's new obsession with tracking the path of hedgehogs makes for interesting times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Good pic, thanks Debs. You'll have to get some sheep for them to round up. Show them a pic of your railway. One or two would be interested in your gauges too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 "How do you know whose balls are whose?" They all have little radio collars, a homing function and tiny biometric identity pads. Of course, for the less technical, we could just use the numbers on them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BoD Posted March 16, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 16, 2012 You could all head to the coast and play bingo as the balls arrive. Perhaps you could invite Her Maj. for a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDolfelin Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Debs/Wonderwoman: Just been looking at the "Doggies' Day Out" in your profile. That train driver bears some resemblance to our Phil. Those 12"-1 foot aircraft that you make - what are they called? Do you have footage of that 5" tank doing its stuff? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 45156 Posted March 16, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 16, 2012 Morning All Debs what a lovely garden railway you've got there - very reminiscent of my friend Mike's railway at Littledale near Lancaster (Littledale Light Railway) - as you're sort of local, you might even know of that line. How long is your run? Quite a nice day so far, and there is some sunshine, so hopefully a decent weekend in prospect and for once I've got the whole weekend off to have a play with the new CD machine and to get to know my music collection again.

gordon s Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Lovely railway Debs, please tell us more... Looked at your gauges. Do you machine them yourself? If so, I'll let the guys at the 00-SF group know as they were looking for suppliers in the UK a while ago. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted March 16, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 16, 2012 Robbie has never been on a train but perhaps we will be able to remedy that when we go up to the Lake District later this year. We will be driving there but I'm sure there will be railways to visit. Or of course we could go to the coast and see if any of Dd's competition balls are passing by (as it will be that week we are away) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I'll let the guys at the 00-SF group know as they were looking for suppliers in the UK a while ago. Yes Gordon, I precision-machine them all, myself.......with monies donated to Dogs Trust (via Gift Aid) ...so, it`s a yes please on passing along info. to possible customers.

Debs. Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Those 12"-1 foot aircraft that you make - what are they called? That`s my LongEz (designed by Burt Rutan).......whom is now well-known as the designer of the Virgin Galactic vehicles: SpaceShip2 and Eve.......Burt has enjoyed an amazing career designing many quirky and unique aircraft; and I have had the privilege of working on many of his designs during my professional, aeronautical-engineering career. The LongEz is handmade (mostly) using composite materials and has its 180 hp. engine at the rear and its tail at the front (the so-called; 'Canard' = resembling a duck).......or rather: "Ass back`ards" as I like to say......fast, agile and lightweight it`s a "sports-car of the air".
