Evening all <br /> <br />Well, we seem to have part-time snow here - it's there when you wake up then departs by about lunchtime. Hoping for more of it and for it to stick around. <br /> <br />John, some of those colours are crazy, I know - I look at new trains over here and think "what went wrong?", say what you like about the old British Rail, at least they designed their trains to look purposeful (rather than the latest ones which look, frankly, daft, and will probably be a disaster for maintainance in years to come - the old locos needed a set of spanners while the new ones need a laptop to fix, so what happens when the software to keep them going gets lost?). There's still nothing on our rails to beat the HST to my mind - built in the '70s, still running today, just hoping that at least one makes it to the preservation groups - though at this rate it'll be doing regular mainline work in place of broken-down new stuff! <br /> <br />Revandy, that was a great story - made me laugh out loud! <br /> <br />Tom, will definitely be posting some photos when the coaches appear. Guessing they'll arrive sometime early next week. The essays shouldn't be too bad - one's due for the 14th of March but the other's not technically due until after easter, so I'll finish one and make a good start on the other. Both 2'500 words so will take about a week each to work on - the hardest part is the bibliography, we have to be very careful about referencing as the uni's regulations are seriously hard-line. <br /> <br />Well, bye for now!
