I Look at it going 125 past me (at maidenhead station) and it sends goosebumbs down my spine.. IMO there is something..... almost..... romantic about the HST...

Alex is right about his Steak Dinner, but what anyone could find romantic about a HST is beyond me. Sure, they're nice trains and look pretty good, but the fact that they send "goosebumbs" down your spine really does make me worried (and laugh).

I'm still worried. I'm not convinced that there should be any trains on your so-called 'Sexy List'.

Joe, you seriously have some problems. It People like you who give this hobbie a bad name, people who would go up and kiss a train (!!!!) and possibley more where your concerned (!!!!!!!)

you would have thought the neds of tomorrow would have given up on all this , kissing trains, getting wet over them, and maybe the hobbie would take a turn, maybe it would have become "trendy-er" again, but this obviously aint going to happen.

Ahhhhhh........

I am sexual attracted to Women..

Metally attracted to Girls

I WOULD NOT KISS A TRAIN..

i would give her a pat on the side in almost saying.... good girl....

I do not have a problem..

I would not say this in Public.. On in a Forum where i thought others would think the same... ish

HST are fantasic engines..

Women and amazing things......

At the end of the day i yes prefer a woman...

But god damn.... I love HSTs

Could that be because nobody else has such a perverse attraction to HSTs? ;)

Joe, I suggest you calm down. There's no need to get uppity with me, I was only having a laugh. If you're going to take it the wrong way I'll shove a padlock on this. :roll:

What? Some HST numbers are white and require a repaint, I enquired if you like HST's that much that you would be happy to volunteer to repaint the numbers.

That's your opinion.

A lot of enthusiasts ignore HSTs, they're too common, when they start being withdrawn, they will get a lot more popular.

Yeah, Here Here, HSTs going out of Waterloo.

The only time we ever get that is when there is engineering works near paddington

However in saying that there is no point really, because with clearance etc the average speed she'll go there is 29 1/2 mph.....

But it still would be coooool though.

:( :( :( :( :(

How could you

Joe

I went behind 4 43s today, and not once did I jiz myself, or get excited.

I Didn't Even get excited at Penzance, when Springburn came in on Inspection saloon. Nor when the Put some power on to rev out of the platforms? And I Didn't Even go to anyone there "Isnt She A Beaut?" or "What Thrash, Me Dear." Why not? Because it is a train, not a human!

Why Waterloo? HSTs live at Paddington, St Pancras and the Cross. ;)
