I felt sure that it couldn't just be me who had noticed the attractions of T-gauge :wink: .

T scale? Hah! You'll all end up blind, one way or another.

Ian - 'Colwick open': one of a type of GNR 4 plank open built in large numbers and so known because of the attached 'Return to' instruction.

What a marvellous day at Durham today. Back to the bench this week - locos and stock to service and I'll see anyone in attendance at Butterley this weekend.

That gets my vote for quotation of the week.

Bevleys? Can you describe the principle features to refresh memories* please V?

*(or as per the mis-spelling I once saw in a very polite broken-English letter from a Turkish gentleman, "mamories")

Perhaps those of an overexcitable nature might wish to contemplate this image from Miniatur Wunderland and then take themselves away for a cold shower and a long, bracing walk.

I blame those Continentals, personally. The Channel Tunnel was the start of the slippery slope.
