Now that could be very interesting!! Cool

Restoring one of the ex-Barry hulks maybe? Trouble is that will cost the producers anything up to £500,000, depending on the locomotive or it's size!! Tongue

Mind you RB I notice you say "Train", so that could include a carriage or two!! Huh

That will still cost a few thousands! Cheesy

You should rent "Unstoppable" with Denzel and Captain Kirk (new guy not Shatner) - excellent film - highly recommended and based on a true story of a runaway train and the engineer and "conductor" involved, saw it last week only 'cos the wife loves Denzel and its tense and brilliant and full of trains, Liz - right up your alley Thumbs Up!

I guessed that'd be it when Guy asked his mate (or was it the other way around?) at the end of the last episode "So what next?" and the answer was "A train!"

Should be good - although I still maintain that it's his mate who does everything, not Guy.. he was even better at making Victoria sponge! Grin

Yes indeed a great film Den, but one with only a glimpse of a main line engine, but a West Country Pacific no less! Cool
