Will your proposed horse be available in a alternative liveries, it would be ideal traction for a fitted H van... (pic from Ernie) But more seriously, and still off-topic, when might we expect the next IRM/AS announcement, I wonder? They seem pretty busy at present so maybe it's a little way off yet. It seems the accurascale range is rapidly expanding so much that maybe they’re up to their eyes with that. Quote

Sorry for bring this topic wayyyy off course. 071s are not my area of interest but it would be great to see new ones. Quote

Well there might be 080 if we’re following the main thread title, or maybe 85 if we’re on the blue kettle deviation? You’ll just have to hope there’s also something to bring big SirMyles to @Patrick Davey’s face! 2 Quote

Stuck a tender on the back of a WT to obviate stopping for water on Belfast-Dublin runs. I don’t think the injectors managed to lift the water through the necessary pipe work so this inelegant experiment was thankfully abandoned. Edited March 3 by Galteemore 1 Quote
Mol_PMB Posted March 3 Posted March 3 I’m sure that the IRM team will Stoutly deny that this speculation about kettle models had anything to do with a heavy night out on the Guinness, and they’ll claim that this early CAD has nothing to do with them… 1 1 Quote
