Found a great train store outside Raleigh called Nick’s Trains when I was travelling last week. I didn’t spend a ton of money, but I did find an R.454 Mk 3a Open Coach ‘Hover Speed’. The markings are great with ‘Streamlining the Channel’ on the side. It was manufactured by Hornby Railways. I visited Hornby in Margate when I was living in the UK.

I don’t normally complain but Delta Airlines has this lousy policy where if you don’t pay for a seat assignment you can’t access the Delta Sky Club. I ended up using the AMEX Centurion Lounge at JFK which was pretty nice though.

I’ve been working on a first-ever LIMESTONE ROOF album. All of the tracks were ripped from my vinyl collection. I’ve selected the tracks, arranged the sequencing, and used AI to create the album artwork. Here’s the official press release. Please email me if you would like access to my fictional album.
