Yes, but there have been no unrefurbished 67ts in service while the District Dave forums has been running! The 1972 and A60/62 stocks had rather many semi-refurbed test trains too if I remember correctly You'd need two sets of colours for the 1992ts though, or were they repainted before this fine society was established?

2006 is when the Drain's 92ts were repainted.

What if all those going to the Acton meet bought a cake in the shape of their favourite stock? Perhaps we could have a competition.

We should all bake cakes in the shapes of old stock, so we feel historical when we slice the cakes. Or, following that train of thought, we could all bake 92TS and just say, "The tape failed. Blame 3M." ;D

Considering external differences on the scale of a cake, only the Ds and 1992s would require two versions. Still that's 14 cakes! I wont be able to bake any myself as the oven in this flat has only two heat settings - off and centre of the earth. Despite setting fire to a flatmate's food, student services insist there is nothing wrong with it.

I say that too, but student services apparently don't. Anyway, the state of my oven is distinctly off-topic here!

Whilst I admire the enthusiasm, I think having members bake cakes is taking things a little far TBH....

I wonder if she can knock a simple roundel up for Acton. The problem being getting it there in one piece! Perhaps we'll just eat it here instead and take a picture ;D ;D ;D

Cookies don't fit through the mesh at Chesham the way fig rolls do.

Ooh, meat to the oven. Sounds tasty, but we have a few veg here... ;D okay this is making me hungry ;D
