Class 40s.....

Post by alisterbetts »

Mark, words fail me..... so how about D255 when it was dual heat?

and Andy, you're a 40 basher (retired) yet you have a picture of the superior class under your name, have you seen the light? And can I have one?

Is it me or does the black and white shot of marks look more like the real thing than the real thing? And never mind D255, what about the POW investiture train (immaculate D210/233)??? :)

Mark, where did you get those scrap woodhead leccies in the top from? as I've never seen them for MSTS before. I'm sure that is the pic from MSTS as the other 1 looks to realistic :D.

Alister, you've returned! Congrats on getting married!

Was using 40057 for a while as my pic, current's 45121 at Taunton.....

I had to retire from 40s when I moved to the Southwest in 1984, Peaks made sense, they ran in North Wales, had a nose, 3 cab windows and made a good noise!

Stuck with photting 47/60/66 these days, absolutely no comparison :(

Andy.

Marriage is......

Post by alisterbetts »

.....rampant in the Betts household. Difference is that Marcus' wedding was all Charles and Di whilst mine was secret in Tanzania!
