  1. Only if combined with go faster stripes.
  2. I was going to suggest removing the wheels altogether and standing it on piles of bricks.
  3. A Jack Russell terrier would do the job.
  4. Can't you move the cordoned off area, chain link fence and all elsewhere?
  5. As suggested above a bike rack or shed.
  6. I noticed they also do a wartime 'flat front' Bedford and Scania and Volvo trucks.
  7. But what are they showing instead?
  8. Is the 1969 act mentioned above still in force? or was it 'done away' with when the coal industry was privatised? Many such regulations were done away with or watered down in the rush to privatise, another case of throwing the baby out with the bath water.
  9. Even the line of trees looks as if it has a slight kink in it.
  10. I wonder how the GE J20's got on? They were designed to do the work of an 0-8-0 but with the 0-6-0 wheel arrangement.
  11. The water cooled version had an extra grill beneath the existing grill. To save hacking the dashboard about it is easier to swap them between the van and minibus, the minibus has the seating for left hand drive but a right hand drive dashboard. Another little tweak is you can make the offside door 'opening' just by adding a handle and hinge. (Loading doors on both sides was an option.) Back to the dashboards, I am leaving the dashboard I fitted into the minibus the brown colour as it contrasts nicely with the cream interior. I will be painting the dashboard of the van dark grey or black when I get a round tuit.
  12. We still make vans Vauxhall/Renault/Nissan, all the same van with a choice of badges.
  13. The picture comes up ok but the slider and the arrow are frozen.
  14. Is the cowcatcher on the back for the cows to throw themselves on when they catch up with it?
  15. For some reason the link comes up ok but it will not roll down.
  16. The earliest 25" OS maps even used to show the internal layout of public buildings. I remember seeing an extraction from such a map in a book showing Strangeways prison in Manchester, each individual cell was shown. I can't remember if the railway line shown alongside the prison was treated in the same way.
  17. An interesting story about the WC&P track. The rails were supplied by Krupps. When they were lifted the steel was used for bomb cases and its possible some of those bombs were dropped on Krupp's works.
  18. Neither is anyone else by the looks of it.
