I was too slow

 

[4SRKT]

Try this

 

[Lampshade]

313??

 

[Mvann]

Class 20

 

[4SRKT]

Not a 20 or a 313.

Not taken at the diesel gala either before anyone goes to www.kwvr.co.uk.

 

[90019]

Is that a 37?

 

[Lampshade]

Nir 450?

 

[CarterUSM]

Class 55, open floor if correct.

 

[Mvann]

Class 47

 

[4SRKT]

Is that a 37?

It is 37175 at the head of the 12:02 Thurso > Inverness some time in February 1985.

 

[90019]

Open floor.

Wish I could do that run behind a 37 these days

 

[4SRKT]

I'll go again

Listen chaps, if we're going to give Guess the Station a run for its money, we need to get a wiggle on. They've had dozens of posts this evening, so let's get the finger out.

 

[90019]

Should be pretty easy

Operator and subclass for bonus points

 

[CarterUSM]

170. Scotrail. Sub class 4?

 

[90019]

170. Scotrail. Sub class 4?

Close.

It's a /3

 

[Captain Chaos]

Was that the Hull trains interior?

 

[ainsworth74]

Yep /3s are the former HT units.

 

[CarterUSM]

Close.

It's a /3

Bugger! In my defence though , I don't work them.

I think they were Hull units.

 

[4SRKT]

Scheisse! Even I recognised that as a 170, and I hate 'em! Too late I'm afraid!

Sie können auf Deutsch sprechen?

(Warum hab' ich "Sie" gesagt?)

I recognised that as a 170 as well. I think everyone probably did...

Nowt majoly wrong with a 170. Apart from the one I had from GLQ to EDB, whose toilet repeatedly failed to lock - with me inside!

Ein bisschen. Eigentlich spreche ich die niederlaendische Sprache. Ich habe mir es gelernt wann ich mit TNT gearbeitet habe. Ich habe es leichter gefunden um Deutsch ueberzusetzen als ich erst ins Niederlaendisch uebersetze.

Entschuldigungen als mein Deutsch nicht perfekt ist: dies ist Niederlaendische auf Deustch uebergesetzt!

I travel on them regularly and they're definitely one of my favorite units.

Errrrr....

"A little. Actually, I speak Dutch. I've learned working with TNT. I have found it easier to switch to German since I first learned Dutch. (?)

"Apologies as my German is not perfect: it is Dutch over German! (??)"

Je ne parle bien l'allemand (ou le francais)...

 

[Captain Chaos]

170's are one of my favourite units to travel on. Wish we had them down our way. Instead we will be replacing 165/166's for 319's by the looks of things when the wires go up!

"Apologies as my German is not perfect: it is Dutch over German! (??)"

Remember I barely have any german...

Almost. The last bit is/should be "Apologies...... this is Dutch translated/transliterated into German".

 

[Ivo]

Dass ist ziemlich gut, mein Freund!

Seen as no-one seems interested in the open floor...
