        I love the fact that the train is remote controlled, but there is a man on it….He just hitching a ride?

          He is running the loco but yeah, I don't get that either. He can run the loco from the cab but mostly they run it with a hand held control box. It's supposed to be a safety thing. They can walk up to ten miles a turn over uneven ground and dark yards. 
          doesn't seem safe to me.

                  Yeah, heh heh about that…I ask everyone not to repost these photos  because as @yinzer knows management takes a dim view of cameras on the property. A very dim view.  😶

                      Does anyone have the measurements for this tour jacket?

                        The tour jacket is an XXL. I’ve never had it in hand. I’ve checked my correspondence with Padmore & Son and there’s no record of measurements there, so I can’t help I’m afraid.

                              Slight change in the tour schedule. @organisys has had his share in the jacket bought by @DK. @DK is in the US and the jacket is due to head to Europe after @steelworker is done. Instead of delaying it's first transatlantic crossing and making @Aetas sad, @DK will go in at the end of the tour when it returns to the US. This means that everyone after @organisys on the original schedule moves up a month. It now looks like this:

                              Here's the schedule:

                              @Appfaff - US - January 2018

                              @Matty123 - US - April 2018
                              @steelworker - US - May 2018
                              @Aetas - GER- June 2018
                              @Cole - GER - July 2018

                                  going to be work pictures because most often that's where I am. Try to get people in some shots for scale. Much of the time I don't see anyone, it's eerily like the shop runs itself
