Well, if Bittern's not going to be there and Sir Nigel is still out of action, I won't bother going

It's not a case of a deliberate "boycott" as far as I am concerned. I have limited finances, like most, and these have to cover many needs and wants. It is perfectly simple: If the kind of thing that interests me isn't on offer, then other priorities win the funding.

What's the latest news on Dom. of NZ?

Any substance at all to earlier speculation about a possible re-scheduled appearance at the NYMR Dad's Army weekend?

No, it isnt going to the Wartime Weekend. However Foxcote Manor will still be there.

Foxcote has just had its stay extended to the end of the main season.

Mk1's in imitation teak... no, just doesn't sit right with me.

They would at least be representative overall of a complete 'LNER' train. Just like the BR Mk.II's in blood & custard behind BR green Tornado.

BR blue & grey should be banned from preservation!

It was always a boil on a carabunkle livery.

Im with you on the Blue/Grey livery Coach.

Have to disagree with you there about the Blue and Grey.
Time moves on and Blue / Grey is now a historical livery period and does have a place in the preservation scene.
Will we ever see West Yorkshire White DMUs again? Now that is one that I can do without (to contradict myself).

Ay up!

The white DMUs looked good when freshly painted. But after a couple of months.

Hmmm.

Better leave sleeping dogs lie!
