    Well the Crompton's out to play in addition to the steam service!

    As for the kettles- I'd hate to hazard a guess....... but I'd say two out of 925, 41312 & 76017........... would love to see 41312 on the RAT! :)

    Gets my vote. Can’t go wrong with a bit of diesel haulage and to boot it’s going to be 47579.:)

    Dave,

    Think of the photo opportunities available to you from late afternoon in to the early evening to photograph this Belle supper train.:)

    A large logo Duff on the Belle set, Hmmm........... if it was two tone green I 'might' entertain the thought....... and then you have a NSE Hoover on the RAT - nah, I'll stay home.

    Erm, what colour is surprise?......

    Just make sure the chicken is nice & moist & the bacon crispy! ;)

    Also it seems like the bookings are ticking over nicely.......

    I did wonder when we started the Friday RAT's how long it would be before a dining train joined in - makes a lot of sense.

    Hope you had an enjoyable time on the RAT & got some photo's before hand!

    Certainly looked like folks were having fun when it stopped for a top up at Ropley......

    According to the latest wagon group report, a PMV has been pulled out of the Meon siding for onward movement as it's been sold, any one have any idea which one?

    People read our goings on?....... :Jawdrop: :)

    Re, the PMV - we were looking at it on Saturday, there weren't any obvious markings, but going from the stock list, it could be 2196........

    The one that Colin Chambers used as support for his cranes. Surprised by this actually as it would be an under frame for one of the grounded wooden bodies, however ours is not to reason why.

    I'm not sure what I think about those discs, maybe it's just unfamiliarity.
    Also, I've never seen a headboard with a yellow background before, is that because they're rare or because I'm being ignorant...?

    As long as I've known it, the RAT has run with that headboard and those disks (although not always both on the front). Not sure of the significance of 201 during the day though.
