How could they do such a thing :(
I just found this picture on Google, and it just made me remember...
It looks better there then it does now, it got burnt
Marazion was given a Pullmen coach, and it was left to rust
The Station closed down years ago, which didnt help.
I used to see that thing all the time, and now its a heep of black, burnt, rusting metal
Arnt those coaches surposed to be respected!

If it were possible, you would want to keep it in its original conditiond00mh4mm3r wrote:Why not find out if you can buy it, do it up, and turn it into a computer LAN place

Thers amny about still arnt there. One at finsbry park (on the way to London-Kings Cross) which has been grafitied on from time to time (Dorris i think that one is) but always cleaned, and theres another at Peco (Beer Heights) which is used as a proper dinning car. its very lovley there
There are ppl that appearently think its fun to lite a fire in trains en things. There's a Dutch DE-3 old diesel DMU all destroyed by fire at a 'shunter'-place at Amersfoort (maybe some of the Dutch members know it). Unfortunately I couldn't find any pic of it on the net.
I have found this however:
I just don't understand ppl do such things. I think they should burn those ppl themselves.

I shunt trains there every 3 weeks at night.(Amersfoort- De Bokkeduinen).Purno wrote:There's a Dutch DE-3 old diesel DMU all destroyed by fire at a 'shunter'-place at Amersfoort (maybe some of the Dutch members know it). Unfortunately I couldn't find any pic of it on the net.
But i will try to take a picture at daylight when i have an half an hour spare time during service.
Then the place is empty except for the Plan U (diesel III)
There are 15 of them more in Amersfoort, they stay at the military complex (De Vlasakkers), so they are well guarded.
There's a lot of graffiti also at De Bokkeduinen.
That stupid "artists" paint whole trains in a few hours.
We engineers hunt them at night for sports.
Every picture is photographed and when we catch the suspects they get a bill up to 100.000 euro for removing the picture and for that we can't use that train that day.
Trains are every night cleaned, so that they never see their works on track.

It's looking like three banana's in a row.
Al bend down by the fire. I think the middle of the carriages is one foot lower than the hight above the boogies.
Edit: I was there when they got fire.
No, it wasn't me

The problem is that it's a walk of an half an hour from the mainstation to get there.Hyronymus wrote:Curious for a photo of the burned train, Chevy. Hurry .
And when i work there next week, it's dark and filled with trains, so no good circumstances then.
But i'll try to do it.

You may have heard of our infamous London bendy-buses.
