Don't trigger the bomb Tongue Once the trigger (subject) is provided and he has a story, his mouth explodes with words which he types (metaphorically) and then i explode reading them because there are no spaces for breaths.

We can clearly see what member if the GNE fleet it used to be!

I'm sure NX customer services might get confused if a 7119 has a rude driver on the 737 Wink

Is that a little stripe of yellow I can see on the back? If so, with the blue base colour too, it looks like it's still in it's old Red, Blue & Yellow livery.

Could just be my eyes though. Wink

Did any of the red SPD's go over the border?
Passed a couple the other night, between Falkirk and Glasgow - that could only be described as being 'Northern red'.

I thought I saw one in Lincolnshire a few months back, but on closer inspection (I was in the car and not a train), it wasn't a reg I recognised.

A detailed history of Bristol vehicles living on.

Quite a faff to navigate, but found a history of Northern/TWPTE VR's. http://bcv.robsly.com/ngtcl.html

3329 proved too much and was scrapped for parts.

Nice picture of 3815. Looks a lot healthier than it did a few years back when the wind blew it into River Drive Bridge in South Shields!
