    RIP Bob Symes

    Very sad, indeed - back when presenters were expected to really know about things. Both he and Raymond Baxter will never be equalled. It is a bygone time...
  3. Beautiful!
  4. 737s travel by rail during the assembly process... ..but, it doesn't always go completely to plan..
  5. Certainly. OTC marching in the playground in the dinner hour, etc... Lindsay Anderson's film If.... is almost a documentary of the madhouses that these places were.. [video=youtube;PmoHv8Mf_-o]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmoHv8Mf_-o
  6. Still considerable delays, and an unrelated power failure this morning didn't help...
  7. I went to a few schools of "that type" - enjoying yourself was seen as an act of mutiny.
  8. .. has given us access to this picture from 1999.
  9. And, to his right, Eric Burdon?
  10. And, of course, you could twin it with its own eponymous 34081 92 Squadron loco..
  11. Nice, QJ-K flies as part of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.
  12. Closed for the rest of the day - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-30863024 .
  13. 200 years of toy and model railways. Exhibition runs from March 20th to Setember 4th. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-30793868
  14. Currently four on eBay and around the £100 mark.

  16. 1,985 dkk = €267....
  17. Looking for stuff on the K Class (honest!), I came across this gem - ideal if 'she' lets you spend money on railway videos.... http://dodjer.com/drama/30003-The_Stationmaster_s_Wife_1977_Repost.html The lackluster and plodding Bolweiser has the (mis)fortune to be married to the town's siren; his trusting nature leads him into serious trouble when she beds nearly every available guy. It's in German, of course, but with subtitles, should you need them.
  18. Rudyard Lake Steam Railway. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-30830799 Asking price £350,000.
  19. Ballyhale crossing struck by a vehicle. Lansdown Road crossing also damaged, but by the wind.....
  20. Looking for something else that James Bolam was in, I found this monologue of a tube driver's final day at work. [video=youtube;undQ-3yZwPM] A pleasant little watch.....
  21. Well, we all know that she won, really. She appears to have been wearing some sort of obscure away strip.
  22. Rodriguez wins - and she'd bought a new dress specially.. I'm surprised, there's money to be "made" from women's football...
  23. They are, as you suggest, used to separate the 'dangerous' elements of the train. The term is also sometimes used to describe a vehicle with different couplers at each end - used to enable coupling of vehicles with different couplers.
  24. Mmmm - slip him a camera....?
