I'm no train lover.. but that is an impressive show of engineering :)
(Technically I think it's re-laying it's own track, though ;))
-
incredible! :y
-
That's got to be alien technology!
-
Some fantastic machinery there.... :y :y
-
I'm pretty sure there is similar over here
-
But still doesnt justify the fares going up by 10 % on some routes.... and some of the silly sods still wont get a seat ;)

I can never understand that.... :-/ you book a seat and find someone sitting in it, last time it happened to me the train was packed, dangerously in my opinion, but the person moved when challenged.... :y I heard others refusing, the response being go and get the conductor, who could not be found.........why use the train, with a family it is cheaper and more comfortable to travel in a Mig.... :) :)

Wow, when I was a kid at school, doodling instead of listening to the teacher, thats just the kind of heath robinson machine I was sketching - fantastic.

Couldnt agree more but if I go to football I prefer to use the train as it means I can have a few beers before hand and even more on the return trip after watching my shower of ***t get humped again ;) ::) :)

glad you likes it guys, tis pretty impressive :y

There is, its currently at Ruddington where they are running a 'training' event on the setup

That's very impressive indeed, great post 'toy. :y
It's a great site as well by the way. 8-) :y
-
That is truly,truly stunning.
The early railway engineers would just have been gobsmacked by that technology. :y :y
-
amazing.. and top points goes to the engineering team who designed that. :y
-
No.1 in the series " Toys MDTM would like for Christmas." ;D
-
interesting stuff :y

Only as a dead weight in order to allow the likes of a c25 to need full gun to shift it :-X ::)

I completely agree cem - they seem to have been very well trained indeed. [smiley=laugh.gif]
