You can hardly see it - the cap is still on....

No two pieces of tarmac are ever the same colour - the range of shades is quite extreme, if you do actually look at them - and there's usually a shading where the tyres have 'polished' it a bit, too - as in your picture.

For the white markings, these 'correction pens' are quite good. ..and 'flexicurves' can still be had from some stationers, they're a great help in making the lines 'flow' properly.. The white markings that result can be a little too clean, but it's easy enough to dull them down a bit.

Cork has five, and even little Ballybrophy has four, but I don't know of a six. Where I live, Stafford, has five platforms, 1, 3, 4, 5 & 6. No platform 2, for complicated reasons...

My local mob had Littleton Parkway - as we had Littleton Colliery not far away, until the great closure plan got going. http://www.staffordrailwaycircle.org.uk/layouts3.php

Review of it in a recent Model Rail or Hornby magazine (somebody lent me both and I can't remember which it was). Seemed to be quite favourable... Like an updated version of magnadhesion.

Lovely thing. A Weshty kit one day, perhaps.....?

Great presentation - like Thomas the Tank Engine for grown-ups.. Keep it up.

I thought you had managed to get some sort of 'sound signature' on your posts.. Yeah, great stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsAamHuyj2w

This Twitter feed - https://twitter.com/PhotosOfDublin - has interesting pictures - scroll down a bit for an atmospheric shot of Kingsbridge.

I am genuinely just listening to Enola Gay on BBC Radio 2 - spooky.

Definitely a good plan..

You could sprain your ankle slipping off that step in icy weather...

Being, possibly, even more pedantic, do you mean GB rather than UK? -
The parents had a sort of tornado affair this afternoon in Rathdowney, Co Laois. Brought a tree down across the road ( which they've moaned about for years! ) and sucked the gravel off the drive and spat it at the windows - two traffic cones went about fifty yards - etc.. There's just no arguing with those sorts of things. We had a proper tornado in Cyprus, Christmas Eve 1970 - the aftermath looked like a lawnmower had run over a train set.

Kent Station partially re-opened - should have full services again in the morning.

Money laundering..?

Mmmm, the amount of sundering might suggest that it didn't come down slowly.. .. you can never really tell until you recover the situation.. .. a chap near me fell through the roof of his greenhouse and it took us fifteen minutes to carefully lift all the glass off him - not a mark.. ..but he could have been cut to pieces.

There's a lot of heavy, pointy and splintery stuff there - very lucky, I would say.
-
We're back to three injured - one taken to hospital and two treated at the scene. Could have been much worse. Best wishes to the three.

Still unclear, but there may "only" be one person injured - a female passenger.
