As the other guys have said, Well done ! As a former postie myself back in the days pre strike, I remember been on the mail wagon in Connolly, not working it ,just taking the bags off .Here's one I saw in Railway Museum in States (Danbury ) Maybe P.Murphy could do up a mail wagon !

There could be a rogues gallery set up where we submit a photo of yourself , maybe only visible to members in case we frighten the general public !!

Unlike most of you guys I am part of the silver haired brigade -the bit I have. I've always had an interest in model railways but only ever had a cheap Lima one back in the 70's. Now I'm getting back into it and am building one in the attic. The fact the the hobby is still going after almost 70 yrs is testement to the enjoyment one can get. It'll always be small over here but will continue. The only thing is prices of Locos and stock can inhibit younger people joining. I dread telling the missus I'm spending €180 on engines. When your older bruises take longer to disapear !!! But she loves me !!
