Hi Brian,

I've also taken delivery of a RH May batch Darj.

Mine however will be staying in mothballs till its visit to ELR Engineering in the summer...

In the meantime I must build a railway in the garden...

Nice loco Brian, I have always liked those since seeing the one up in Indiana that is now back in the UK.

Is Busybodies still trading? I have tried e-mailing them several times without reply.

"Unfortunately, Youtube have "stabilised" what they thought was a "wobbly" video, with the result that the captions now wobble!"


I guess that'll teach you not to make such wobbly videos! I'm sure I enjoyed it more with the wiggly captions than I would have with a wiggly picture! ;)

No 21 entered service yesterday at the Lockley's - here she is on her first revenue earning train with some rarely seen stock, including the two sheep wagons, The Luggage Van (the red van) the vegetable van (the green one), and a VERY old WLLR van. The crate you can see in the open wagon was "interesting"....................
