Enthusiasts my A**E

Hope people dont mind seeing this post from one of my fb sites.

Got to share this even though its miles outside our area. Following the incidents of tresspass with Scotsman we get this at the Severn Valley.
Copied from another group ...
Whilst my previous post regarding the SVR Gala was upbeat I have since been informed of a serious criminal act carried out by some selfish lowlife that with have extremely serious consequences if not corrected. We have all admired the brand spanking new class 68 from DRS a company that are there to make money but are extremely enthusiast friendly. They sent two of their locos (which could have been earning revenue) and crews to support our event. It sickens and enrages me when some little shit takes it upon thereselves to unbolt and steal the Makers Plate off the loco while it was stabled overnight in Rock Sidings, Bewdley on Friday night. The implications of this are imense for the enthusiast movement as the company would be quite justified in pulling the plug. It MUST be returned ASAP. Someone out there either has it or knows someone who has it. Let's face it you can't do anything with it. If not returned (I suggest it is posted anonymously to the SVR) then the authorities will be involved. Over to you folks it's time to pull together and get this sorted NOW.

I hope the mindless morons realise they are alienating railway enthusiasts among the TOCs.

Hi 52D
The brain-dead idiots don't care, the parents don't care and even if it gets to court they only get a telling-off. Then we'll get the sob story - deprived childhood, only 2 TVs in the house and they haven't got a computer each. My heart bleeds.............
52D, Now look what you've done - you've started me off on one of my many 'hobby-horses' :idea: Hang the b'***''rs!!!

Must be mindless, to take a Makers plate off of a Diesel, and a NEW one at that. :shock:
