Having a look for a picture on Flickr for another thread I started looking through a users albums and came across this bute.. https://www.flickr.com/photos/roddymacphee/15949436470/in/album-72157648669725228/ A Mk3B, more normally seen on top-link WCML trains on a charter going to Kyle of...

Over on the FGW livery thread there has been discussion about Cornish being on the new FGW/GWR livery. What are peoples thoughts? Some have said it help tourism but it is the national language for some. I think that, as far as Scotland goes, They are trying to copy The Republic of...

Looks like this could be the first 156 unit to go.. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-30576434 Would need total rebuild and re-wire. Would it be worth it now given its age?

Just spotted an extra jumper between Class 91's and the TSO(E). Anyone know what its purpose is?

Hi, At some point in the 80's I watched a "teen" drama series of ghost stories. It was set in Lancashire/Yorkshire I am trying to find the name, etc of one (as I want to watch it again) The basic story is a load of teenage youths get on an all Br blue 101/110 (sure it was a 110) and...

Found this beauty on Youtube.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGpNbikV3k8

Sorry if this is in the wrong section.. I am looking for, even just a picture, of the ScotRail east route map that was inside some Haymarket Class 101,107 & 150's that showed Meadowbank station in Edinburgh. I think some units still had it till 1995 long after the station was taken out of use.

Came across this livery diagram in some of my dads old RTC stuff and the one on the right shows a 90 with miniature ploughs.. Wondered if the class 90s were ever fitted with the brackets for carrying miniature ploughs? Going by the diagram it looks as if that was the plan at one point...

Anyone else found that the pantograph is broken upon opening the box?

Why have most of the latest commissions all had sound speakers fitted as standard? I don't use DCC and have no intention of, so why should I pay for something that i will never use? The Murphy's Models 201 and the Olivias Class 76 are now outside my price range.. Why cant they make them...

Does anyone know if the un-numbered Heljan class 47's come with a transfer sheet to add your own?

If anyone needs working drawings (as supplied to thanks to CIE) send me a PM of what you need. I have lots but not all! NOTE!! Some, like the 201 bogie diagram, you could use to carpet your living room, they are that big, and would be impossible to copy!(unless you would like to make one...

Was looking on the Hornby website to see when their planned Mk2D's in Intercity livery are due.. No longer listed on the website.. (R4462 etc). Maybe there is a all new version going to be announced at Christmas (fingers crossed!!!!!)

Found this on Flickr. A Deltic on Mk 3 stock at York. IN 1979!! http://www.flickr.com/photos/blue-diesels/3861945278/in/set-72157604142594351 The coaches can only be from the Edinburgh-Glasgow sets. (branded Sc12014 for example) Anyone have more info?

Or rather which Unit has the same construction as a Mk4.. (but shaped differently) In the same way a class 455, 150 etc is a Mk3. Had in another thread class 158/9.. Close. but wrong. Anyone else what to guess?

Found this on Youtube.. Takes me back to my childhood.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEgWn_8q1IE

Could not find one so ill start. Class 47+ Intercity Mk4 set?? Where? Answers on a postcard! or just guess here! The winner gets to post the next pic and so on..
