I'm waiting for the time when an engineering can be put into a scanner and a 3D model is printed automatically from it, with no requirement for CAD.

I know I won't find that font on a PC. It's to aid getting transfers made.

The painted numbers on coaches and railbuses.

I've acquired a T & D railcar, remote control, remote control to boot! 20260409_171219.mp4

What font did the CDRJC use for its numbers?

As I thought, a long journey for any passenger after the shunting to dropoff and collect wagons.

Did the Donegal freight trains stop at the relevant goods yards on thier journey to load and unload goods?

On the Wee Donegal there were bogie coaches with a passenger compartment at each end, the rest being for the Guard. They were used on freight trains. Were passengers permitted to travel on them when in use as a freight guards van? It surely would of been a slow journey!

Is it Whitehead that its registered? Its just that, as I'm sure anyone who has tried to buy anything from GB to NI is told it can't be done as we're EU. It seems that we're in the EU when it suits, and UK when it suits.

Wouldn't that of made a great porch!

25 + years ago a Class 70 mule end was visible from the train going past Magheramourne quarry. I assume it's gone now? But why was it there?

Having seen the dangers that a gland blowing out at 25 PSI can do, I think that was an extremely foolish thing to do. There's a reason why boilers require a safety certificate.

What, if any, pressure did it get to?

Please tell a steam loco wasn't fired up without a valid boiler certificate.

Blame who laid it, not where it came from!
