IMR modellers may be interested in this picture of the repainted G H Wood taken on 18th May 2007 simmering gently in the Manx sunshine.

Wow fantastic, No,10 back in Ailsa Green, does this signal an end to the Indian Red domination I wonder?

Bit odd, considering Reg's models can only represent F37 and F38.....

Yay, Ailsa green!

Might have to rustle up a re-skin of Reg's model in that livery - when I'm not diligently revising for my exams, of course

Think it got reposted for you mate.

David, there has indeed, Paul Ogden Manager of Railways has retired and left the railway, and I believe David Howard Director of Transport has stood down. With any luck we'll be back to some more interesting combinations on the railway, would be nice consdiering the huge loco fleet they have now, something like 7 working engines at the moment (4,8,10,11,12,13,15) which by my reckon is the most servicable engines since about 1968.

To get you up to date with the Isle of Man Transport Managment Team.....Paul Ogden was still at work on Friday...David Howard left the company about 12 months ago to work in Eastbourne, however I must inform you that he passed away only last week following a short illness.

Yep - and only 4,8,11,12,13 now wear red!

I'm off to see them with a mate in the summer event thing, can't wait.
