Last time BR put a fogman on duty?
TEDDYBEAR D9521 replied to Welly's topic in UK Prototype Questions
The last time I can remember a fog man on duty was about 1977 at Walnut Tree Jct Cardiff Valleys. Each box had a list of fogmen and snowmen issued to them ,the last one I can remember issued was about 1978 because a lot of the Signalbox footnotes were amended to remove the fogman by changing the acceptance of trains. Also a few distant signals became colour lights,no need for fog men. -

The Beatles at a mystery station
TEDDYBEAR D9521 replied to David Bigcheeseplant's topic in UK Prototype Questions
The Beatles film A Hard Days Night was filmed in March 1964 on the Minehead branch ,the reason being was the branch was closed on Sundays due to being no service in the winter, the same went for Marylebone station. For those Hydraulic fans , the train was hauled by Hymek D7047 from London , also D6333 played a part in it on the Minehead branch. -
Up date today due to problems at the factory the Class 14’s have been delayed with no release date yet. As per the website from Chris.
