The Great Forum Railway Inspection

Post by Dr. Bond of the DVLR » Mon Apr 02, 2012 9:42 pm

Get those railways safe, efficient and under control people as HMRI Mr. Isle will soon be visiting. Yes, that's right! With the old DVLR out of the way Victor has had nothing to do and seeing all the railways on here has decided that it would be best if he pays them all a visit.

If you participate you'll get a H and S sheet to fill out and a log book to fill in with amusing comments when he arrives. Please take lots of pictures. Then it will be your responsibility to post him along to the next railway. Lets get as many railways inspected as possible!

To participate just PM me your address and I'll put you down on the list.

Ok so the very nature of this project requires me to send your address to the railway before you so there is a data protection problem. I'll put the list of railways in order here and if there is a problem or you don't want your address given to someone just PM me and I'll sort something out!

So expected railways so far:

EHLR - hussra Tick
KVSR - KVSR manager. Tick
P and DLR - 90733
CVLR - Pendo Pilot Tick
WPSR - Sir. Clothem Cap Tick
PeachBottom and TommyDodd - lindsey joint
ANLR - laal ratty Tick
WSMR - DVT Dweller
MPLR - Mrs F Controller
PCR - TTHLRMatt
Andrew-(Windmill Hill) Welsh Highland Railway
angr607 - Broadstone Estate Railway
philipy - Elderbury & District Light Railway

He needs to inspect Shane's traverser, and the lack of a point indicator at the "tunnel" end of Chyknell loop - which has already led to accidents - should be looked into as well.

PMSL! I will have you know the issue with Chyknell tunnel end points has been resolved (mostly). The traverser however is still an accident waiting to happen! :D

But yes will add my address for a visit to the CVLR.
Tommy Dodd may have an ARS key but I have a TASS button & a Rope Ladder, just like pirates, except the TASS button bit.

The Warren point and Stow Railway has a soft spot for Mr Isle just next to the chapel. :lol:

I imagine he can visit the ANLR, you should have my address already. If you let him stay for a while, he can do a few NWAG lines, visit Ravenglass even and of course get decapitated by the killer bunny :lol:

Excellent idea, although need to negotiate with the management of the PTLR for making the roof removeable

The bars of the Dragon Wagon would leave those characteristic "grill marks" on him! ;)
