Dan's Christmas Advent Calendar

[railsquid]

and so we dont miss out on 37's (and anything else about a class 25!) can we have a 37/4 for tomorrow please?

Your wish shall be granted Jedi Master! ... don't know if it will be a "4" though. Wouldn't know the difference if you hit me around the head with it 

The "4" after the "37" is usually a dead giveaway. And the electric train heating (dunno why I carry that useless fact around in my head, but there you go).

On the Fourth day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Four A Class 37
Three A Class 47
Two A MAN Lorreeee
and a Class 56 in a Pear Tree ...

Ah well ... a Class 37 eh, I know you're wondering what that's got to do with day four. Well, 37 is 3 & 7 ... 7-3=4

I guess Tank will not be proceeding further

My lads in the depot couldn't get these two turned around quick enough, so Tank will have to run a "reduced service" over the holiday period

Makes a change to .... "due to engineering works ... "
