But they're worth it. They add a lot of atmosphere to the railway.

I love the atmosphere and the photogaphs. What is Tintin doing on your layout? (sorry I'm Belgian and I like to know where Tintin goes to because with the Flu, he sould not leave the country unless for an essential reason).

 

[PhilP]

I think he has been self-isolating (with Snowy) in that tent, for the whole pandemic!

I am more concerned with what that bloke thinks he is up to with the lady in the first picture. Or perhaps she is no lady?

That's no lady, that's his wife.

In 1970 ,a German mallet loco. Number 995905, was officially scrapped, what really happened was a eliet team of engineers from lazy Grange Bay, n conjuction with the Hillhead and Dale, secretly smuggled it out of Germany, and rebuilt it.. Today we can declassified these photos ..roll the A team team tune...
