Just Before The Big Bang

It’s Titfield Thunderbolt Thursday again. The day of the week when something inspired by the much loved cult colour Ealing Comedy from 70 years ago is posted, which of course features our regular scruffy ex GWR 0-4-2 chuffer and plenty of inch high whimsical naughtiness.

It would appear that our merry band of moonshiners have broken down with their flatbed lorry and blocked the end of the runaround loop. They moved on to the lorry after giving up the narrowboat, its regular route along the canal becoming too predictable to avoid the short arm of the law. 

The crew of the locomotive are preparing to ram the lorry out of the way, but with the gas cylinder which heats the moonshine still, a sizeable quantity of 180% proof liquor, and of course a highly pressured steam loco boiler, the outcome could prove quite explosive. 

If you scroll back to yesterday’s post, you’ll now know the reason for the huge and rather scary cloud seen as far away as Devon. That photo being taken just 38 seconds after this one.
