35018 British India Line

Waiting for a paint delivery.

 

Stroudley improved engine green?

 

It's a secret, remember this is Carnforth we're talking about.

Mr Riley NEVER exhausts his stock (however many locos. come through the door)

 

They are waiting a special delivery of tartan paint....

 

Please...........pretty please..........don't give Mr Smith ideas like that.

He's joking Mr Smith, ignore him.

 

he cant hear you, he's got his ear phones in, playing Paint it black in a loop

 

or rocking out to some AC/DC with "back in black"

 

For the background on the Boaty McBoatface Line nameplates?

 

Valve settings needing further attention following the test run according to @Oswald T Whistle in the Dalesman thread. Presumably further test run(s) to follow?

 

Might even be ELO Mr blue sky , or maybe, green green grass of home, or knowing WC nina 99 red baloons

 

Ooh, Lady in red!

 

on that basis, can we have a separate thered for 'Paint Froth'???!!! ;-)

 

Yes, this is it!

What you need is a seperate thread for 35018 British India Line....

 

so , what song should not be on Mr Smith's play list ?
purple rain? any dream will do? pink Cadillac?

 

'Shaddap you face?'

 

Something from the Scaffold maybe?
Lily the Pink. or maybe BIL(ly) the pink

 

or Combine Harvester, but lyrics changed to, " i drove me 8f through your depot last night"
