About highpeakman

Profile Information

  • Location
    Close to the GN & GE Joint Rly north of Lincoln.
  • Interests
    Very broad interests but perhaps focused more on BR Midland - Derbyshire, Notts and Lincs areas in late 50s/60s - Wirksworth, Buxton, Cromford & High Peak in particular - Also GC Main Line around Nottingham + any Industrial railways (NG and Standard). Old enough to remember C&HP in working order, Trent Junction Station, Derby Works in full flow, Windcutters at Nottm Victoria, prototype Deltic at Grantham and a few other things I miss.A believer in modelling to capture the feeling/atmosphere of the time/prototype even if some details are not correct and of the right to run what I like.

  1. Trying to reduce my library of railway books. Unfortunately there seems to be such stupidly low prices offered when selling online. Might not be bad though as the local hospice shop will benefit and hopefully they can get more for them.

      I gave a load to a local miniature railway to sell a few years ago. They will have made a few quid, so fair enough.

      I've bought some good quality second hand books for 1p - yes you read that correct, one penny. Postage was a couple of quid.

      Likewise, beast. A penny for the book, but £2.80 postage is common on, for example, Amazon.
