My Christmas present to myself; a model of the London, Midland & Scottish Railway prototype diesel-electric locomotive number 10000. This locomotive and a sister loco completed some 6 months later were the first main-line diesel-electrics built for any railway in Great Britain. Number 10000 was rushed to completion by order of the LMS Chief Engineer, H.G.Ivatt, in order that it should carry the letters of his company. Sure enough, it was completed in November 1947, less than two months before the LMS was nationalised and became part of British Railways on 1st January 1948. Sister loco 10001 was completed with the same colour scheme, initially sans any lettering. No. 10000 carried the LMS letters until 1951. The locos were powered by an English Electric 16SVT diesel engine, and developed 1600hp. Sadly both were scrapped in the 60's. A society in England is trying to raise money to build a replica of the loco.
The model is in 00 scale (1:76 scale on 16.5mm gauge track) and is made by Dapol, commissioned by Hattons.

Jerry Owen was my German teacher, this exercise book dates from 1972. Our standard textbook was "Deutsches Leben", supplemented amongst other things by an audio-slideshow called "Vorwaerts" starring a boy called Hans Schaudi, his family, his friend Lieselotte and his pet dog Lumpi. German lessons were on LMS upper floor, south-west corridor, with occasional trips to the language lab in the new 6th Form Block. I went on two 2-week school exchanges to what was then West Germany, to a small town called Emsdetten, both times having to live with German families in their homes and speak ONLY German. The German boys were much more "grown-up" than us Leeds lads, they drank beer and smoked fags, and had a far clearer familiarity with what may lay beneath a young lady's lederhosen

LMS first class single from Llandudno to Deganwy. I can't Imagine there was an awful lot of demand for first class travel on this short journey, which is probably why this unissued example survives.

Managed to get 3 working front LED lights on 10000.
Both have 9v motors in. The pics dont really show it but I managed to get hold of some metalic brushed aluminium vinyl for the numbers and lettering, which looks very nice IRL and true to proto. 3mm tube is LEGO metalic silver, again the pics dont show it well.
I've also tried to include the subtle differences between the engines ;)
These are the first 7 wide full size diesels I have done (they were sort of a test to see if I can re-visit the class 37 and 40) and also now the longest at 2 or 4 studs (cant remember) longer than the Pullman DMU units.

A general view of the rebuilt railcar.
Following the end of World War Two, the LMS Railcar underwent a metamorphosis from svelte passenger train to workaday maintenance train looking after the overhead power cables around Manchester. The design shifted towards practicality, with the railcar losing the centre car and two of the remaining four engines, but gaining new cabs, a new roof profile and new layout inside.
