    I think '09 was pronounced dead earlier in the week than Nelson Mandella. Shouldn't NM carry a 60009 wreath?

    The boundary between clever humour and tasteless humour is a tricky one and not easily seen by some. I think you might have just tripped over onto the wrong side.

    I was on this, taking my parents for a nice day out up in Lincoln.

    Plus points - no diesel on the back, the coaches were nice and warm and in good order. 70013 was an acceptable substitute for 60009.
    Negative points - Standard class on the back so we were a long way from the noise of the loco. Turgid timings on the return culminating in a 1-hour stagger from Stevenage to Kings Cross!

    Don't think so.. The press coverage to date has been saturated to a level to make you sick of it, he had rock all to do with railways in Britain, and finally he was no-one on here's close friend or relative. All in all I think you would need to be on the "I am looking out for chances to be offended" scale to be offended.

    There we go! Pretty much the same as Kristian, albeit with an arrival shot at Kings Cross in the evening.

    Well controlled as far as closing the regulator goes I guess after it's already started spinning. Standing there it was more than a little slip.

    Your comment does you no credit at all and is more indicative of the witterings of an ill educated attention seeking teenager than one who has retired.
