    Surprised no-one has suggested that you need a good 'eye' to spot that error...

    Thanks.

    It’s not the same unless it is done largely by eye. It’s the subtle human variations that give it character.

    True, sadly I don't have time to learn to do it properly. I do try and get some variation in though, my tracings are always from different sources, lots of pictures scanned in!

    You could blame it on the local zider.

    Robin I think you should leave it. Given the spelling of some of the broad gauge engines it would perhaps be a surprise if you were the first to have done this!

    I have always thought that the Plc were out to gain control of the railway, and it seams to be the case, as I see it they are using the situation to gain control by undermining anyone who has not got Plc support and trying to marginalise any support groups, if I was member or had any interests held by the WSRA ie shares held by WSRA I would be extremely worried and have done the same thing and removed them from WSRA.
    Unfortunately a few people making a lot of noise on sites like this try to make their voice sound as if the whole railway thought the same way when it is not the case.
    With 6024 on site I would have thought that would have a been big enough sign as to where this will end up!

    No need to get too upset.I was forwarded a Facebook posting yesterday of a sign which observed that Kansas City got 25 million "anal" visitors!

    I believe it's "Rolling all over the floor laughing out loud pissing my pants" which seems a rather daft thing for someone of my generation to type, let alone 2 generations older! Still, whatever keeps you feeling young I guess... :rolleyes:

    KC is one of the least "up itself" cities in the US, but 25M visitors??? Are they counting the cattle in the market? I like the place, but I am stunned by that number. Great place to watch trains whilst eating steak.

    What a strange post which illustrates a much less than full understanding of the situation on your part.

    The valuation in question is of locomotive 4160 owned by 4160 ltd. The dispute has nothing whatever to do with the WSR PLC (who operate the railway) but is between the WSRA (as thankfully rescued from the previous ruinous regime) and 4160 ltd.

    Your last sentence is particularly puzzling and appears to have no relevance.

    As a regular volunteer I have to tell you that the previous ill feeling between the WSR Plc & the WSRA is actually so "over" that it is now only ever mentioned in the context of history and the clearing up of the resulting mess.
