  1. Watched a reasonably entertaining crime thriller called "The Postcard Killings" last night, only scene that spoiled it was Swedish Police in what looked like correct uniforms supposedly boarding a train at Stockholm to apprehend the suspected killer, except that it was clearly a class 91 hauled Mk5 set sitting in King's X station.

  2. I asked this question on another forum as the electrification of the East Kilbride branch includes the relocation of Hairmyers Station as part of the project, and the planned new site adjacent to the St James Retail Park is on a gradient of 1:72! Jim
  3. Think that is a 101/ 107 lashup, hence the set number being partially removed. Jim
  4. The is one at Polmont commemorating those that lost their lives in the 1984 disaster Jim
  5. I went into the local chemist and asked the assistant for something for wind, she gave me a kite! I noticed a large axe on the counter and asked what it was for, she replied, splitting headaches! Jim
  6. There are some photos of the locos while stored at Kipps shed in Coatbridge here. https://canmore.org.uk/site/45760/coatbridge-gasworks?display=image Jim
  7. Parts of the Airdrie to Bathgate line had an interesting history, originally opened a single track, it was then doubled, then singled in the 1970s, closed and lifted in the 1980s then Airdrie to Drumgelloch was reopened as single, then reopened completely as double in 2010 Jim
  8. I went to see a Spanish magician last night. He said he was going to do a disappearing act. "Uno...Dos..." and Bang! He vanished without a Tres Jim

  19. I would have thought that if someone was wanting to model one of the four pre grouping Scottish locos this was the least likely given that the Glen's and GNOSR D11 both lasted well into BR days. Still, well done Rapido, one to think about. Jim
  20. If he was scottish "Ben" would have been more appropriate.
