How does one lose a whole wagon ?

Thanks,yes those are they, so I have a pair of B171510(FB) and three packages one each of FA, FB and FC !
All Peco original packages with their little clear plastic box, sealed ( no sign of tampering - I know shop customers can be a little odd sometimes ) so it would seem that a Peco assembly line took a hit from Charlie Chaplin !

I have four of the FW versions - one is B170121 (the FA weathered), the other three are B174727 (the FC weathered) - so I think they just take a handful of the pristine versions off the end of the production line and slap a bit of grime on it, so it's a lottery which ones the customers get in their boxes marked FW!

Today I gave up looking, decided that life was too short and that it would give me an excuse to make up a kit to replace it.
Yep, you guessed,
this evening it revealed itself whilst trying to creep down the back of a chair across the other side of the room.
Ha! little blighter!
It is a B170121 which makes it an FA.
So, I have an FA and two FB.

Nurse, nurse, time for my pills cos I am beginning to count numbers , , ,

Now what shall I do with the rest of my life , , ,

At Least you found it Malcolm, it would have been driving you mad for weeks, I know I have been there. It must be something to do  with our age, well that's what I am blaming anyway. I usually blame the wife but it was getting to risky so I have had to stop using that one...he..he

hehee !
It takes a long time (often) to train us*

*u see wot I did there ?

But seriously folks, I can only assume that in my concern to catch the loco before it fell off further I must have snagged the wagon about my personal clothing and unwittingly transported it (in a non-Star Trek sense) far afield.

(Unseriously : perhaps I should have let it be, it may then have built a nest and spawned some weeuns ? )

it MIGHT still be switched on!

If it is on then that will make finding it much easier :
rather than waiting for the house to burn down to reveal it, what you need is an shady arms dealer - you purchase a heat-seeking missile and aim it in the general direction of your cave.
Warning : it is advisable to get an adult to assist you.
Oh and it works best, if less spectacularly, if the warhead is not armed.   

Bit drastic!

I found it in the greenhouse, don't ask me why I took it in there because I have no idea!

It's due to the Greenhouse Effect.

Frost amelioration ?
more hopeful than I Gunga Din !

And pigs might fly Malcolm, the mind boggles sometimes how things work out.....
