    Years ago, the tracks at the ferry terminal extended further than they did in recent years, from Loch Promenade in to what is now a car park. This extension was, IIRC, only used to terminate the working and run-round the horse, i.e. always empty...

    I have bought shares in several projects, they are just papers in a drawer. There is no market for them, I consider them just donations. Lyn is up and running, so sending the money to the project worked, and the result is there for all to see....

    Does the '762 club' have members/shareholders or are they merely donors? It seems to me that the project's aims are clear, so the only question is whether they're delivering it, or not. Up-thread was a link to a progress video. I watched it, and...

    When I volunteered with a Dutch club we took over a DB class 42 oil burner. It came from a power station that bought it straight out of service as a standby boiler. When we eventually got it there was evidence of mattress forming in the firebox....

    I read somewhere that the horses know the routine so well that if you reduce the number of trips by one, they try to carry on, past the depot!
