General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

happy days when steam was king of the road,when they where closeing wigan shed, i transfered to bletchley in bucks, but it wasnt long before they brought in diesel and then electric, that was the time for me to get out. the thing about steam was that you could always get to your destination as long as you didnt drop the plugs, or you hadnt come of the rails, there was nothing that could compare with traveling through the night with a full head of steam at 60 m.p.h.
