National Railway Museum

Posted 05-24-2009 at 11:58 AM by OddjobAbe
I got there at 11:10. Got thrown out at 6:00. My only disappointment is that my brother tolf me that the Deltic prototype was back, but it actually wasn't. The Flying Scotsman's being serviced, and they've put an irritating little bit on the front of the Mallard (which is my favorite engine, by the way). Just missed the Sir Nigel Gresley which was taken out yesterday. Actually got a proper look at the Chinese train this time (enormous thing), as I was only with my nephew (who is the only person I know apart from my brother who is interested). Duchess of Hamilton's streamline casing's been put back on. Looks lovely.
Saw a worker bang his head on the Flying Scotsman's tender.
I am considering buying a model Deltic prototype for £200.odd, but I might pass.

I wonder how many of you will pretend to be interested?

My dad has been going on about different kinds of trains and railways these past couple of weeks. Apparently he's been having my toddling nephew over every Thursday morning and have been watching Thomas the Tank Engine with him all the time. That, all my old Thomas toys and then add Wikipedia into the mix and there's no hope for any other outcome.
