📸 After strenuous work in Scotland, the ‘B1’ 4-6-0 found its way to the GCR. 61264 is running round its train at Loughborough and still wears its Scottish style front numberplate. An excellent way to round off the year. 30 December 2000. 🚆

The post-Deltic era at Kings Cross, just after 0900 on Saturday 21st January 1984. A wide-angle view of 2x Generators (47409 on the left & 416 on the right, flanking 47063. I can't find any gen for any of them on that day - can anybody fill in the blanks?

Friends! Yesterday Mum took me to the Vet for a check-up. She is a bit concerned that I have lost weight despite eating a lot, and my coat has got a bit scruffy. She suspects thyroid issues and I might need some medicine. I’ve had some blood tests. I’ll let you know what the results are. Percy, my Deputy, knew I wasn’t keen to go, and offered to go in my place. That’s dedication for you! ❤️

Long and thin is how we cut Tommys food, as it makes it easier for him to eat solids. He can push it all the way to his cheek teeth as you can see in the video 🐿🩶🐿

MANCHESTER PICCADILLY: 86103
'Andre Chapelon' awaits release from the P5 blocks. The loco appears to have been relatively recently repainted in executive livery. I'm going to put this around early 1986.

Rolf report 22 Oct: As they say, ‘build it and they will come’. In my case if you properly construct a cat nest - it doesn’t take much work: usually a well scrunched blanket plus some other soft surfaces - then Rolf will come. Simples. Rolf x

Can anyone answer us this…
Teddy has abandoned his massive memory foam bed for a tiny plastic bowl on the window ledge.
Is he just a cat, or are we missing something?

Fall was your season, sweet Kevy.🍂🍁As soon as the heat came on, you would settle in to your fave spot by the fireplace and purr happily. Miss mew and Skippy so much. We wish we could hear those cozy little purrs again. 🌈
