    Might be of interest - http://www.askaboutireland.ie/reading-room/environment-geography/physical-landscape/castlecomer-plateau/coalmining-in-castlecomer/mining-equipment-and-inve/ - if you haven't already seen it..

    That screw-head in the road could be a manhole cover...

    Ah, I see it now - I thought he had an abscess..

    It seems the location they were held at has closed - if you copy the URL of the picture you will get this message - https://www.icloud.com/mobileme/not_found/ - maybe they can be reposted..?

    Time to add another search on eBay..?

    If they had orange waistcoats on it would be alright. I would have shoved that lad in the smokebox and shut the door....

    Most of the current collection occurs on the loco wheels, due to the traction tyres on the tender - the wires transfer the current. I've been inside the tender - I wonder if the body is just clipped on - can't remember and it isn't here at the moment to check.. http://web.blissett.me.uk/house/hornby-service-sheets/ss-204.jpg

    Seconded - I sent an agent to investigate on my behalf, as I won't make it over until next week now - he was suitably impressed by it all..

    Could do with a sort of Street View feature..!

    Uploaded August 2007. It looks like the original one..

    We'll see if there's any reaction - YouTube got excited enough when I put up a video of someone doing a cover of a Neil Diamond song...

    I've flagged it - again. I was also surprised that it's still there, but it is - after five years now....

    When you start to get the hang of them, you could have a go at the capital letters, as well...

    Confused me for a minute, there - I wondered if Thomas the Tank Engine was available as Gaelige..?

    Not something to put on your application for the post of signalman...

    Fair enough - it sounded a bit iffy to me - enough people have been doing it for long enough for the problem to be well-known, if it was real. There are other people reporting a similar thing when they've used PVA - so, it's probably down to the lead they're using - if that is really what it is..

    There has been talk, in the past, of a superglue/lead reaction taking place on a few occasions - http://www.ratomodeling.com/articles/lead_ca/lead_ca.html - I'm not sure how true it all is, though.. Time will tell.

    Some versions of the old Dock Shunter had milled edges on the wheels - like a 10p piece or a €1 coin. Not really visible in the picture. It does give them a bit of a 'growl' though..

    Here's a smallish one - going the wrong way round a roundabout.. It gets a bit less shaky as it goes on..
