Atomic Systems

i meant the route. sorry for any confusion.

i might have a go at building the metrolink now that i have a bit of spare time. steve n had a skeleton version which he sent out to someone but nothing has been heard since.

no worries, maybe it's my fault for not looking hard enough for the 155's. i still love running the 153 doubled up to represent a 155 though.

i think i have the issue with the ground transport interchange. worrying fact- i actually have access to the monarch engineering hangar and have been in the cockpit of many an aircraft. one of them which had just come in was catered up. you can guess what the engineers had for dinner...

sounds wrong to me. the caldervale section will remain a heavy rail route. the stations from new hey onwards will be new hey, milnrow, kingsway, rochdale railway station, wet rake gardens and rochdale bus station. there will be no metrolink to castleton, mills hill etc.

corrections: First North Western (not Great Northern) and Arriva Trains Northern (nitpicking, sorry)

most unusual working at my local station was an arriva service running on time! no lie! seriously, although not my local station i did see a nice blue 47 at man picc a few months ago, it was working the last few loco hauled virgin services and looked great.

unfortunately matey it seems that the gantries haven't been placed. still a nice route though, got a very british feel to it.

it was an air conditioning test unit i think, not too sure though.

i'm happy with either. if you need more info on the line ian allen in manchester do some good books on it. i have ramsbottom to bacup (i wanted rochdale to bacup and they sent the wrong one, couldn't be bothered sorting it out) and it's got a few diagrams of track, landscaping etc, even has photos o...

unfortunately, it appears to be against company policy to take cameras on-site. what do they think i'll do? sell pics to the russians??? anyway, i'll see if i can get a few parked up on the street, nowt wrong with that

as i work at a haulage depot this will be easy i think. depends what security reckon (it's like big brother there). do you want double deck 40 ft trailers, single deck 40 ft and 30 ft or just 1 type? want a shunting unit too? i'll try my best to get some pics of a tractor unit and trailer together b...

saw the train itself in august or september, looked ok. it was pulling out of man picc.

ah, lee. this is a bit off topic but were you the guard who was talking to the 2 burnley fans (me and a mate) on a late train from leeds to manchester (we got on at hebden and got off at rochdale) in september. i know it was a while ago but i think i remember something being said about this guard's ...
