Well done TJ.

Your prize is a beer, wine or cider of your choice.




From your own supply.....  Tongue Wink Grin

Talking of Brunel and BNM current avatar - who remembers the row when a children's book about Brunel was published and they airbrushed the cigar out of that photo?

As for the question - isnt he above the HST (High Speed Train (Inter City class 43 125 units)) between the first and second columns..over on Platform 1?

You too are correct bobm, although TJ got there first.

Second prize. Feel free to help yourself to a half of cider/beer or a small glass of wine.



Again, from your own supply.  Grin
