            Let it go. You were busted by the GAL fair and square. T'was a good effort though.

              An explanation on bashing for the uninitiated. Bashing refers to the the activity of riding on locomotive hauled rolling stock. Normally this will be on a railtour organised by one of the bashing societies most of which have a preference for bashing a particular class of locomotive. Regular readers of my posts will know that I am a member of the Peak Army (the SAS of bashing) who have a fondness for being pulled by class 44,45 and 4locomotives - all named after British mountains hence the name Peak.

              Sometimes, bashers will go to great lengths to bash a loco in regular service. Often one will travel to the other end of the country just to undergo a 10 mile journey because one has heard on the bush telegraph that such and such a loco is hauling that service. Often , the information turns out to be unrelianble but the biggest downside to bashing locos in regular service is the presence of normals.

              Firstly I just resent them being there because they have no appreciation of anything rail related and their attitude to a bunch of middle aged men with cameras shouting things like 'Dreadful', 'My Lordz' and 'Hellfire' also leaves a lot to be desired

                  And I can't believe nobody's mentioned giving you a damn good bashing if you don't flip off and stop bothering us with this utter tulip

                    You mean there's some kind of internecine warfare among trainspotters?
                    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

                      No. A normal = anyone who isn't a rail enthusiast
