Re: Detonators
How rules change..... 2006? Are the dets the same today as they were back in the good ole days of steam? And are they checked for their date on every turn?
Re: Detonators
the Dets in BR days were colour coded, now they are dated

Re: Detonators
A company I once worked for hired a van which I had to pick up from the rental company. When I looked under the driver's seat I found a box of detonators. On going into the office to sign the rental form I asked who'd had it before us and they told me Balfour Beatty. I passed the detonators on to a friend who was a volunteer at a preserved railway. His name and the railway's are probably best left unsaid.

I was told as a kid that if you were stupid enough to hit a detonator with a hammer it'd take your hand and most of your arm off. I treated that box with utmost respect.
