Have you ever considered embarking upon a career with Bord Failte?

The rain on that Welsh layout was just so reminiscent of driving up the A5 in the '70s - somehow, the A55 is so much less miserable... I am not actually a real person - sorry to disappoint you. My 'collection' of so-called 'real people' so far is :- The Train Man Robert Davies Heir-flick Murrayec Dave Mike 84C I know that nobody else really exists......

New 'dazzle ship' expected next month - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-31081468 . Mersey ferry to be re-painted by Sir Peter Blake. It might be in a different style, this is his sort of thing....

It will happen - the timescale is all that is in question, I think. They 'sent' a special tool up to the Space Station the other day and printed it out there and then - http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/30560063 .

During the testing for the enormous 'Kangaroo' missile, seen here.. .. a MiG 19 was carried aloft and successfully launched. Edit - some footage.

Ah, right - I'm still in IE mode from the coupling question. Carry on, nothing to see here..

MM5602 with black roof. MM5609 with orange roof. I think..

They are amazingly tight. I picked up a pair of coaches at the Stafford show yesterday and so I had them handy to have a go at. They do start to move if you squeeze the ends together first, but they're still more reluctant to come out than I am determined to make them.. I found it better to remove the bogie and release the carrier* from the coach, to avoid any mishaps, but it was still more difficult than I was prepared for.. *Taking care not to lose the tiny spring.

Finally found a picture of the 'ladder incident'... ..airports around the world made more professional-looking stairway extensions as it moved into service... ..and the larger 'civil' fuselage became the basis for the Tu 126 'Moss' AEW aircraft.

I-ran that theory through earlier......
-
..the last three.. And a Welsh layout with appropriate weather approaching.
-
..and more.. And an automated layout.
-
..and on to other things.. Some big fiddle yards..
-
..and the stock in the yards..
-
Right, pictures - Abhainn an Scail first, of course.

Some of the smaller Tupolevs are deliverable by helicopter, if you have one big enough... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_pictures/8002147.stm

A few years ago, I took what I think is a rather nice picture out of the window of one. -
Found this, as well.. http://www.railpictures.net/images/d1/6/6/5/4665.1080891180.jpg

At this one, in Stoke - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-31083638 - they're fitting 'sacrificial' beams, as it gets struck so often.

Make sure that your landscaping is sound - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-31081630 . I think it's this bank here - https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Harbury+Tunnel+in+Warwickshire&ie=UTF8&hq=tunnel+in+warwickshire&hnear=&ll=52.238944,-1.448575&spn=0.002888,0.004823&t=h&z=18&vpsrc=6 - it's done it before...

This is Hungarian, I think, although it's in Linz, Austria. Similar in style, certainly. http://www.4rail.net/reference_locoseur_electric_taurus.php

A bridge strike in GB - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-31083118 .

Well, I've just returned from what was a great show - an Irish layout, a few Welsh ones, a couple of continentals, but no US ones. Nice to meet Mike 84*, and the extremely nice Mrs 84, who did seem very well trained. Pictures later...... * That's six people that I've seen in real life now...

That bottom ticket is a gem. About fifteen years ago, I had my ticket punched by a girl who looked about fifteen - they had, I presume, let her choose her own punch and she had picked a heart-shaped one - and I had got in the first-class by accident - and she had decided to let me off....
