Auction details to follow! #tmrguk #VariousMultipleUnits #4VEP

@Champs707007 Indeed, they must have been struggling on the last bit of the takeoff roll

Talk about dream come true getting to run your models on the real one. We took #Project3417 Jnr x3 to Strawberry Hill Depot to see @Gordon_3417 & all became kids again playing trains on trains! Huge thx to Steve, Lynn & Darren for accommodating us.

Two generations of South Western electric traction at Brockenhurst.

@AndythePandy_ Long day yes but quite doable. I operated flights longer than that on a 20N, and came back in the same day. LTN/HRG, LTN/SSH for example. Duty time just over 13 hours - assuming no CTOT, could easily turn into 14 hours. You get on with it but you are shattered the next day

@RexKram55112378 @AsherHuskubus @shunterinred The amount of graffiti on the fleet this year is getting extremely boring. What has happened - it never used to be this bad :-(

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

@shunterinred Good grief that’s a mess. What is it with 444034, 3rd time this year it’s been vandalised on that coach 63884. Waste of life vandals need all wobble on the head

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

@ViewParkside I have the same problem. If Bachmann upscaled the 319 into OO then a Wimbledon layout with these would be tempting.

The Lymington Flyer is back for 2025 with yesterday being the first day of services this year. 450003 had the honours and 450074 gets to enjoy it today.

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

There has been a tree massacre at Lymington Town! I just cannot get used to there not being any trees here any more. There’s been trees as long as I remember. Though of course, I do get why they have gone :-)

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

@EwanRowland @SamuelsRoom2015 Sorry just seen this - I don’t look at Twitter that often now and have locked down my account a bit here - have seen your message on Instagram so will go there! Cheers

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

@EwanRowland @SamuelsRoom2015 Not presently - I do commission orders. If you’d like one then do get in touch and I can let you know prices etc. Currently fully booked into next summer though!

[Neil @SamuelsRoom2015]

What an amazing Christmas, Santa brought me an S Stock and mummy and daddy found an amazing person to produce this 450 in new SWR livery. Thank you so much @3CIG_Max

Such a happy boy 😊😊😊

450019 down at Lymington Pier yesterday evening

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

Last day of the Lymington Flyer for 2024 as engineering work will shut the line from tomorrow until 6th January. 450123 has the honours

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

@bens2477 Won’t be for a while, I’d like to think we’ll get another 15 (at least), likely 20 years out of them yet. They’re solid units

[SouthWestMax @3CIG_Max]

Document the ordinary…one day it’ll be gone…450087 at Brockenhurst with a Bournemouth stopper.
