Taken Aback By Double Stack<\/span><\/p>\n The video says 220 wagons; fbb counted 226 and two locos, but he is unreliable eyeball-wisr. But what is a few double stack containers between friends?<\/p><\/div>\n Rather uninspiringly the roof of Tesco’s wagon can be jacked up to get an extra layer of pallets in and then lowered to the correct UK loading gauge.<\/p><\/div>\n Rails (of Sheffield) have recently come up with a couple more of their private owner never owned wagons. In just over 20 years in Sheffield fbb never knowing sucked a Maxon’s sweet. But this small company still makes its product in the traditional small-batch way.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n fbb cannot ever remember consuming such delectable scrumptiousness.<\/p>\n Three flavours are available “in the shops”.<\/p>\n … you program the bogies to take the box wherever it wants to go.<\/p>\n When it gets there you program it to autonomously load on the lorry (truck!), presumably equally autonomous and off it goes to the Emerald City. Perhaps.<\/p><\/span><\/div>\n This is the over-priced tram which runs between Parkway and Airport at Luton<\/span>. And here are (or maybe were) the straw hats.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/span><\/div>\n Birmingham New Street<\/span>. The property is for sale. It has a reasonable view of the western exit tracks but that is the less busy of the two ends, so perhaps not an ideal pad for a wealthy trainspotter.<\/p><\/div>\n Rugby<\/span>. Very much changed today. Just a simple canopy protects passengers, but …<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n Woodhead Tunnel. The new bore was built for the very short-lived electrification at 1500 volts DC.<\/p>\n EM1 loco No 27000 was named “Electra”.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n … but can’t spell “Brunel”!!<\/p>\n
