    Word on the street is that there are injector issues to solve before it can see use.

    Ahh. If it refuses to run last Stogumber, perhaps all it needs is a supply of Roddas Cream.

    Can't understand all this twaddle about antiques. All I watched was a huge group of twitchers undertaking their hobby and doing a spot the robin competition, One guy reported seeing 7 and he was not a part of Ops

    Is this a competition to see who can spot Robin the most, because if so I am not doing very well having only spotted her four times. I have heard a rumour that if you cant spot her more than five times, a visit to specsavers is the punishment.

    Often called posing. Quite common on heritage lines it seems, so the WSR is not unique in this. :D

    My sincere apologies Robin. My excuse is that at 89 years old you can easily make mistakes.
    Its a very long time since we have met as its twenty six years ago since I retired from the WSR and although I do not see the WSR very much nowadays, I look up this site and Stephen Edges every day to see whats happening on the WSR.
    Regards
    Doug

    No offence taken, Doug, I still get it wrong myself on occasion. You could just edit the original post?
