cary hill Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Sausages - I say let them travel in style through Brent in their very own luxurious Corridor Sausage Van with windows. I can just imagine their little pink sausage faces pressed up against the windows as they catch their first and only glimpse of the sea travelling along the Sea-Wall. Fortunately for Rob this coach appears not to be available in 4mm, although it is in 2mm and 7mm. Technical info : L.M.S./B.R. 50' Corridor Sausage Van Diagram 2001 (for Palethorpes traffic) Running Nos. 38873-76. Built 1938. Withdrawn 1965-67.

RMweb Gold gwrrob Posted May 20, 2014 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 20, 2014 Now I know I've shewn this before but I need your help tonight.Hopefully Mike Stationmaster will give me some lever info at Railex this weekend but I need to ask which of the open windows would the signalman be most likely to be stood. A. For most scenic embellishment. Bearing in mind that once fixed he will be seen in lots of photos. B Prototypical matter. Maybe overseeing the branch and will be out of sight in the main.

It will depend on which one is most convenient for bellowing at the drivers and guards of any trains which pass the box incorrectly lamped. We could have done with him earlier on in the thread.

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted May 20, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 20, 2014 Only on ANTB could someone suggest placing one's sausage in the valve gear............ P In order to avoid such malpractice, the authorities issued a directive that all locos fitted with outside wall charts should display the attached warning Sign. These were placed at strategic locations where persons were most likely to insert their sausage. As a result, sausage related injuries were reduced by over 50% in the first six months. Albert Flange-Priser, a junior at the Swindon drawing office and responsible for the design of the sign was awarded a special gold watch by Messrs. Walls and provided with a years supply of best pork snorkers by the company for his services to sausages. When asked for a response to his award from the local paper, Albert memorably replied, 'Sausage? I just can't get enough!' Rob 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
