What, speak to people? How novel! Hang on, I'll see if my mobile has an app for that...

Ah, different omissions on different web sites... I had assumed Maybach Memories replaced the diesel service rather than being an addition, with the re-timing due to limited stops (I'm not a timetabling expert!). Excellent - looking forward to it even more now!

 

RAOTFLOL! That's the spirit. Hope you get the answer somehow. Maybe there still is a role for that pigeon.

 

said pigeon is poorly, in Secret World now awaiting collection from there and transportation back to County Down.

 

TBH I can't think of a a better place to be hanging around than BL or any WSR station taking refreshment in the cafe and chatting to like minded people , girding your loins so to speak for your trips the Western .

 

Where is this on the WSR?

 

It's between Klevan and Orzhiv.

What's under the tarp opposite Minehead signal box please? Is it a type of dmu, can just make out cab.

 

Very pretty. Where can we install one on our railway?

 

No yet another WIBN

 

I have looked up WIBN and it seems to mean 'Women in Business Network'. Is there an alternative meaning please?? Yours in naiveity.

 

"Wouldn't it be nice" schemes looked down upon by some, and mischievously suggested by others.

 

It is an acronym for "wouldn't it be nice" a classic gricer's sentimental suggestion that would involve others in hard work and expense. Usually but not exclusively, associated with restoration or recreation of over large locomotives or romantic railway extension projects.

I doubt the WIBN (the women one) would apply to preservation as they generally have a firmer grip on money than men.

 

With the closing date for applications for WSRA trustee coming up soon I am in 2 minds to put my name forward. I understand that there will be around half of the seats that are in need of filling. I was wondering if anybody else on this forum was thinking of standing?
The closing date is 7th July so not long to decide.

80 mile round trip behind D1010 and fish and chips. Good day out.

 

I

Should have realised. First four words from one of my favourite Beach Boys tracks. Not related, of course.

 

Were there many on it today, I was o the 1530 yesterday and there was only 12 or so cranks on it, fair few normals mind, it was running with some lovley window stickers mind, I should have taken a photo

 

I would have thought that the most appropriate Beach Boys track for the W.S.R. would be 'Heroes & Villains'
