Posted by 47426 on WNXX:

I'm posting this message as a matter of urgency to warn all other locomotive owners on here...

I'm a shareholder in 47771 based at the Colne Valley Railway. 47771 has been subjected to a visit by the "Copper Fairies". I've just got off the phone. I cannot go into too much detail - but the damage is bad.

Please believe me - this is not a hoax. I'm posting this immediately as a matter of urgency. To warn all other locomotive owners out there. Please make sure your locomotive(s) are secure.

Can you please pass this message on.

Please don't come on here winding us up - I can barely write this without my eyes watering up.


Thanks.

It seems word has gotten around that locos have copper in them, if anyone owns/part owns or knows someone who owns a loco, please make sure your loco(s) are kept safe and secure.

Ian

I know what I would like to do to these fairies if caught but it's probably illegal in this country!

Put them into a shooting range and use them as live targets, hell one bloke got paid for doing that! Found out about it when it was on one of the Sky channels this week, didn't watch it as I had other stuff to do.

Can we add passengers who all get on/off at the same door to that? Holds up trains no end!

I'm pretty sure breaking in to a privately owned loco and stealing materials for sale is illegal too, so therefore we should do it. No doubt it breaches their human rights, maybe we should just breach their human skulls then?

I suggested keeping a dog in the cab overnight, maybe they`ll think twice when its chewing on their legs :)
