[mallyh]

i have been looking at this for hours and nothing .I even text my niece who lives near it for a possible nickname but she said it was either dlt or david lee roth please someone put me out of my misery.all I have is..... bur marigold...Burma railway ?

[margarettom]

Well, the trains don't have drivers so non something?

[Flonska]

17. Red Admiral?

[Flonska]

sorry - not 8 letters - ignore!

[fiction-factory]

would have to plural red admirals.
It has DLR in- can't see the rest yet

[fiction-factory]

I have tried anagrams of DLR + NEEDS NIL but can only get RED NILLSEED (there is a red mill seed but it's not really found in woodland.
May generate some ideas though

[fiction-factory]

Shouldn't do anagrams in my head- an E too many there

[Mamyalynne]

Red Squirrel

DLR requires anag

[Flonska]

Well spotted :-)

[Mamyalynne]

Ta, if that last word in the clue is right it doesn't add anything - 'moving' or a similar word would have been better.

[Flonska]

Agreed . . . as it stood I kept looking for somewhere to include the letter "o"

[fiction-factory]

Well done Mamyalynne. Grrr- I was convinced there had to be a 'nil', 'zero' or 'o' in there for the 'nothing'

[Mamyalynne]

I may of course be wrong but seems a decent shout.

[GRUMPY]

Mamyalyne,That's a great answer thank you

[Mamyalynne]

Good luck Grumpy.
