Ahh OK I can see that now. Nice. I wonder if that's where Colas got their inspiration. Thanks!
Interesting...did you consider using a square diamond like the BR depot plates?
On your marks…get set…race!

A brighter summer's afternoon in 2000 as a fresh looking 60033 "Tees Steel Express" powers through on steel slabs from Scunny for export.
60046 "William Wilberforce" is again hiding on an empty MGR, also from Scunthorpe to Immingham Bulk Terminal.
#BSMRGUK
It's Y2K and this afternoon's showers begin to clear this evening, so it's a stroll down towards Wrawby Junction.
Missed what was on the steel slabs from Scunny to Immingham, but I can just make out a Transrail 60 awaiting a signal on the slow line.

10pm on a Saturday, August 2000

Thanks to everyone that made this model a reality 🥰
So true! :)
Oh my God, this year is horrendous! I'm a Class 60 fan and think I might be going insolvent over the next few months by the look of what's starting to ship lol. Models are on another level these days. Loving it!
