Mind boggling the stats, from numbers carried - 2 million per day, to deaths - 9 per day. Excellent punctuality stats too - 95~98%. Next week they are going to be looking at per way maintenance & also the new stock coming into service. Well worth the watch!

Great link that, Noel. I've bookmarked it for the future, as he has some nice prices on G scale stuff too

I think I'll be using mine as static models on an insulated track in a depot, as stored locos

I grabbed the two IE large logo 071s, the Galway set restaurant & genny van coaches, and mk2 coaches 5210 & 5217

You'd have to be a collector alright - they are the most god-awful looking yokes those repainted Hymeks!

voted! Some layout you got there - well done!

The definition of insanity - repeating something again & again and expecting different results!

Great job on it alright! Now imagine a pair of 121s back to back in that scale... drool!! Who knows, when I have my workshop built up, I may just get some steel sheet, and take a loan of my dads mig welder...

Great job so far Ray! Love the idea of dropping the level of the river down - coupled with the hill in the corner, it really breaks up the flatness of that section of layout -
You say yawn to driving a loco with an amazing setup like yer mans, then you post up a flight sim?!?! Probably the most boring thing, after a 'watching paint dry' sim! Ooh - hours of sitting there watching clouds go by - how exciting!!

As with all hobbies - whatever it is, you don't mind spending money on it as it is your hobby

Look on the bright side - no complex pointwork to be modelled saving €€€'s & no spending a fortune on loads of wagons to model a freight train! ;-)

Yep - I'd say it's a 59 alright

Yep - great series! I love the visits to other garden railways, including the legendary Bob Symes' home. I picked up The Garden Railway Manual book by C J Freezer (http://www.bookdepository.com/Garden-Railway-Manual-CJ-Freezer/9781852604653), and have plans to get something going in the garden in the next couple of years. Currently halfway through a block workshop build - hope to get that completed this summer.
