Merchant Navy, Battle of Britain/West country rebuilt & spam can & standard class5(named). Touched nearly a 100 Mph coming back the fastest I did behind a steam loco. This was over a Saturday night & Sunday Visited Weymouth,Bournemouth,Eastleigh & Basingstoke Sheds I was 17 at the time most of my "spotting was done on the Midland & eastern regions although I did go to Birmingham(Snow Hill)a few times. |
first ecounters
the origianals,but i think BR spoilt them making the light pacifics,do you?and out of all the storys i have heard so far,i think yours is the best so far for the ecounter with the southern,do you agree on the unrebuilt-pacifics are the southerns most iconic train?
