  9.

  10. Fantastic stock & photo! It’s very rare you see a Trans-Pennie properly modelled and that photo has taken me down memory lane very nicely!

  17. Scoring a last minute winner in tonight’s footy has to be celebrated correctly (it doesn’t happen very often believe me). Theakstons old peculiar (again) sorry for duplication but it’s that good
  18. A slippery slope but very enticing! I have spent hours on Sim-sig’s various Signal box simulations and they are addictive and fun!
  19. A walrus and a Shark share one of the sidings at Charwelton on a Sunday afternoon in June 1987
