I now envisage an image of flaming locos and units.

Strangely enough... Looks like Nano Banana Pro does indeed recognise Class 27 locos. Here's aforesaid D5355 on the trap points although I don't think my description of Polmadie does the depot justice.

Signalling with a 0 second headway. It would solve so many capacity issues.

Concerned that the trains miss out on the opportunity to enjoy the beach, here is a Voyager on its way to enjoy a day on the sands. Meanwhile, unconcerned that there would be a train from London, despite the green signal, an Exeter alumnus contemplates the fact that anyone can play guitar.

The lamb doesn't look very enthusiastic about eating the pasty. Perhaps it doesn't relish the prospect of becoming a cannibal? o_O
Remember post 824's Free-range Pasty Farm? Beyond the agri-Gronk was a field of alpacas. I wager that field is empty now. ;)
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway - Genesis 1974
The poster is fine but I can't see everybody looking at their hands. ;)

This sets up a poor joke. Alpaca a pasty - you bring the scrumpy.

Do lambs drink cider?

I must say my mind had turned to the Fine Young Cannibals when seeing such a spectacular lamb.

Its a cheese & onion pasty, not a lamb and mint. Wonder Woman pasties cater for all! :lol:
Hmm....... I'll believe it when I taste it - and so will the lamb, I suspect!

Looks like the beginning of a sailors' hornpipe!

Those Skodas can certainly move.

Given the Class 90 was used so extensively on trains to Manchester and the North West, it would have been very convenient if it had an umbrella in the door like its' modern cousins.

Luckily he cannot reach the juice rail.

They run down the railways, sail across the seaways. Fly through the airways, but they cant say no to you. (Locomotion, OMD 1984)

I thought about going into a Kylie rabbit hole. I resisted. Instead, I am going to the 1990s and saying name that tune..

I'm going to display total ignorance; but a little sleuthing makes me think...
Solid Rock" by the Australian rock band Goanna, released in 1982.
Good theory, and whilst things released in 1982 are clearly magnificent, I did point to it being a 1990s song.

Gemini could not produce anything like a class 50.

"Au contraire, Marlene, au contraire". ;)
Are you using Gemini Pro or just the freebies? I’ve tried several attempts to get realistic locos and have had no luck asking for specific classes. I only managed to get a reasonable 66 by asking for a typical English freight train.

I'd hung a hope on the 1990s one being a re-release. :D

OT - I've been trying to do an image for Supergrass Mansize Rooster. A human-sized cockerel are a doddle; but getting Gaz/Danny/Alex in a bathtub and adding a railway element? It's ruddy stumped me...

The subscriptton version. Free for 1 month in December and £5.99 pcm subscription from Jan until end-March.
It's done really good renders - check out this thread's images from latter-November 2025.
I won't pay a £19 pcm subscription from April, though: I'll revert to the freebie 5-a-day version.

Cheers. Yes I looked through earlier images for 50s. I’m avoiding using locos in the realistic thread unless I can get a good likeness.

From the same album (Gemini has 4-tracked the Forth Bridge)

Sadly not there yet. I could not resist the image this creates. Also a track from the album, but not as well known as the two that I have posted so far:

And for a more well-known song
