I was admittedly being facetious and trying to wind Mike up a bit (in good fun, of course). Mike is also quite fond of the GWR and we have had many spirited discussions as my proclivities are just as strongly to the LNER.
I think it goes back to youth and the days of Cyril Freeser editing Railway Modeller. Cyril was a rabid GWR man and just flogged us with examples of modelling GWR country termini, so much so as to make a Pannier, autocoach, station with flowerboxes just deadly cliché.
I'm an LNER (and predecessors) man through and through. GRIN!
