Good luck sir!  I'm going for a rusty Seat.  No idea why I think that - but I do.

If we're guessing then I'm going Saab 9-3 estate.

56 plate, 1.9 diesel.

130k plus.

In that indescribable beige, champagne colour with half leather.

Euston achieved, now to a connection somewhere down this rabbit hole.

[Cord Fourteener]

So far so good

Best of luck… i’d guess… but that would be cheating!

Is this the elimination game? 

It has four wheels, at least it did in the photos. I'm told it has an injan. And a steering wheel. 

Also, and this is most handy, a roof. I think its pretty long but not so long as to be a long-roof.

[Jim Bell]

Hmmmm. Have it got a maunel?

No Spanish waiters as far as I know. Or HBOLs, but I won't know for sure until I get there.

Shoulda said!

Well this is fun on a Sunday. 8 hours in and not even seen the thing yet.

Maybe you could do this every week? 😆

I'm full of good ideas.

Tune in tomorrow for train 9. 😄

[Cord Fourteener]

Guess the station I'm about to leave from on my last short connection...

I did say it was going to be an epic. 

Stand aside, Gilgamesh. Beowulf ain't got nothing nothing on this.

Given that it's a Sunday I'm impressed that you haven't had to do half the journey on replacement buses...

That would have been painful!

I'm on a train that has a short carriage stuffed entirely with what appears to be a diesel engine but otherwise has electric overhead wire and pantograph power... how odd.

That`s `cos it`s diesel-electric..............

Looking forward to seeing what you have purchased. I love seeing these threads. 

I never remember when I am getting a car. Good luck

that's not what I normally understand diesel-electric to mean, unless it's a dual power source, mains electric with backup generator. 

We are apparently on a stretch without overhead power, yet we set off with it...

It actually does seem to be electric on some stretches and diesel-electric on others. 

I realised my original comment may have come across a bit know-it-all, didn't mean it like that, I reworded it after you responded.

I mean I've not seen dual power like this before.

Not at all... it was just the way I interpreted it.
