    Had a wonderful journey today and great food so big thanks to all who worked hard to make it possible and get us back to Leeds only a few minutes later than we expected.

    Below is a pic having just arrived back in Leeds

    I think you've aimed that at the wrong person, I'm not the one who's trying to raise a tired old argument about diesels on the back.
    I've never contributed an opinion one way or the other.

    While since you chirped up, when u hear any engine at idle, as opposed to offering help it is distinctly different, maybe you need a new hearing aid, a colleague who knows about this also offered the same opinion.

    Until then keep taking you pictures, and getting a free show.....

    Let's assume that you and your knowledgeable colleague after listening in the comfort of your own home to a compressed video taken on a windy day are right about the diesel,
    (you do have a 50/50 chance after all)................then what was your original point?

    Let me guess.....another chance to stir up that tired old argument again, it's time to give it a rest you're boring!

    Here's a couple of nice pictures for you to look at instead,

    60009 on the S&C

    Go to it lads, trade insults.
    You, any of you , have an opinion, fine. But try to be a bit more mature, you do yourselves a disservice when you resort to trading insults. :tsk:

    Some hard graft gone into getting it clean and sparkly as seen in Stuarts shots. Well done to the fellas responsible.
