At this risk of getting banned from the Forum why describe it as an A3? OK, as I've mentioned elsewhere, I am no expert on other than BR WR Hydraulic locomotives but even I can see that is an 03, NOT an LNER A3!  ;)
And, er, shouldn't it have a brake van on the rear?

Sometimes your lack of Knowledge underwhelms me.

A3 its a trunk road from London to Portsmouth!!

Or in this far away land  A3 Napoli-Reggio Calabria is a motorway in Southern Italy, which runs from Naples to Reggio Calabria via Salerno. It runs through three regions: Campania (171 km), Basilicata (30 km) and Calabria (293.9 km).

Hope this helps  ;)

:hmmm: Mmm, er, not really.
Looks like we might both get kicked off at this rate...  :'(
If it's not a Diesel Hydraulic then it's not a real locomotive.

Might have missed the point or joke but 'A3 Notice Board' and 'O3 loco' in the first post is pretty clear to me and I'm usually sozzled.

Correct me if I'm wrong because I usually won't care.

Cheers weave  :beers:

Excellent layout Nemo - far far better than the little track and buildings that will adorn our lounge furniture top soon. :thumbsup:

Loving the latest posts here - best laugh I've had today! :D

I suspect you have missed the point which is us having a little joke over the meanings of A3.
As I said in an earlier post the layout is excellent, particularly given the very limited area to work with.
If it's not a Diesel Hydraulic then it's not a real locomotive.

I think you ought to reclassify the loco as M40 as it keeps going round in circles :P
You know you're getting older when your mind makes commitments your body can't meet.
