What! No 2 of my scratchbuilt coaches are alike, only 2 of the 8 are built to the same design!!!
BTW just to say I think riveresk has done rather well and I really mean that, not just because she is threatening to use all of the karate moves shes learned at uni on me. She is a green belt.
Really liked the slowing train to a stop on the last clip

This is getting out of hand. I know I said things got heated and silly when bungle posted, But this one has just gone silly of its own accord with out bungles posting.

A great video, and a much better choice of accompanying sound track. Thanks for posting it.

'Take the Long Way Home' by Supertramp was a hit single in 1979, well before many of our Forum members appeared on Mother Earth!

Ta, everyone. Yeah, I have a pretty varied taste in music. I still have some clips left so I might do another one. What do you all think?
