Hello from Benslow

Hi guys,
First post from me I've always had an interest in railways as my Father worked as a fitter in the old Carriage & Wagon shop at Hitchin. I've known several drivers over the years, one or two still doing it, but approaching retirement now!
I'm also interested in Horseracing and am a member of a syndicate with a horse with John Balding near Doncaster.

Hi Benslow, Welcome to the railway forum, Some locos were named after racehorses.
