Hello all enthusiasts.My interest in railways started in 1954 when my family moved to the midlands from the north east.Nearly all my class were keen "spotters"so I joined in and before long went on expeditions to Crewe and other exotic locations on the rail network!Left school at 15 and went to work at W.G.Bagnalls loco works in Stafford which was interesting but the factory was very old and there were accidents so I left and joined the RAF as an electrician on aircraft.my last close encounter with the rail network was the GWR line next to RAF Cosford !I have a few "atmospheric photos which I will post later!!41225 used to transport me to Rugeley trent valley every working day when I would switch to the train for Stafford!
