RMweb Gold gwrrob Posted May 1, 2018 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 1, 2018 I have 1362 of the same ilk. Delightful. I'm tempted by another one after seeing Rich's GWR version on Sunday. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted May 1, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 1, 2018 And the ease of installing a decoder - just ease off the smokebox door - is brilliant, like Kernow's 0298. Contrast that with the installation I have just done on an HOm 0-6-0 tank, where I had to remove two screws, the cab, the coal load and sidetanks to get access.

jcm@gwr Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I thought Eric, who after all is half a bee, would be something like an E147. But, if Eric really is half a B, that would mean he is a 2-3-0! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonB Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 But, if Eric really is half a B, that would mean he is a 2-3-0! Ideal for a shelf layout! -- Build it in low-relief! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castle Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Hi All, The real No. 1363 once carried the unofficial name ‘Viking’ chalked on it several times. Why we don’t know but there we are... I wonder if it was because it could sing the spam, spam, spam song? All the best, Castle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold toboldlygo Posted May 2, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 2, 2018 Dockyard Doris ? Too cold and salty Hi All, The real No. 1363 once carried the unofficial name ‘Viking’ chalked on it several times. Why we don’t know but there we are...

RMweb Gold toboldlygo Posted May 2, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 2, 2018 Hi TBG, The Viking thing isn’t funny but it is true! All the best, Castle Castle, I knew about the Viking name on the real one. The loco's talk to me when I work on them (I'm not known as the Bulleid Whisperer for nothing you know ), Rob's 1363 identifies as female, but has a very male name..

RMweb Gold toboldlygo Posted May 2, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 2, 2018 Are you qualified to work on locos with gender dysphoria? Of course - I'm a skilled surgeon I've had a Castle Class that identified as WW2 fighter, several British Monarch's that have identified as Princesses, but I won't mention what class Rob's 1363 identifies as..
