Just seen this at Münster. If you’re in Germany, keep your eyes peeled for it….

Later in my journey I passed several more Hector Rail locos stabled at Duisburg, all with Star Wars character names so this particular loco seems to have drawn the short straw…

Ah, I see.  Who is going to be the first to build a Rhunian-style Listenbourg State Railway layout, then? 

 

Or a model of their metro?

It's connected to a Venusian data collector.

England is not delineated on the map as separate from the UK, geographically Great Britain and Ulster. 

Ulster is bit of a misnomer as there were 9 counties in Ulster, only 6 voted to stay part of the UK.

Northern Ireland is the legally correct name for the country.

Already done that*, but it's under the floorboards (see MRC April 1968 I think).  Main problem is mice in the tunnels derailing the trains, but the advantage of doing this in 2mm scale at least prevents the rats from getting in there.

 

 

*And none of you can prove otherwise, Shroedinger's layout.

Quite right, and I've got friends in Co. Cavan so I should know better!  There are 9 counties in Ulster, and only 6 of them are in Northern Ireland.

I've known some Americans who would struggle to tell you the name of this country -

(Just for them, it's the thing that stops Alaska from being an island).

Quite correct. The mice are appropriate for 2mm scale tunneling. Rats are for 4mm/OO gauge scale tunnels, and moles are for O gauge. It can get specialised if you want a Light Railway in 2mm, for that you need the mice from Brambly Hedge.

Joking aren't you? Liverpool have got a fifty year waiting list for season tickets and is sold out every match! 

 

 

Man City can't even sell out their council house stadium. After all they are just a glorified Third Division club owned by sportswashing Arabs.

 

Before all that money came in they had won less than Huddersfield Town!

 

As Clough said, "You might as well throw all those medals in the bin as you haven't won them fair and square"....
