Hello
 

Hello, I'm David, live in Yorkshire (all my life) and am 65 years old, and interested in trains since I was 3 years old!!! My mother took me to Bradford Exchange station, I was taken up onto the footplate of a LMS tank locomotive, and I've never forgotten it.
I now volunteer on the Wensleydale Railway, as a crossing keeper.
Having just joined the forum, I am looking forward to enjoying it to the full.

Hello David and welcome to the forum, enjoy and all the best.

Hello and welcome to the forum David.

Hello David welcome to the forum.

Hello David and welcome to the Railway Forum. I don't think we have any crossing keepers on the forum. (If we do I'm sorry but I did not know). Nice to have one that I know about..

Hi David welcome to the forum,
Regards

Hello and welcome Dave :)

Hi David, welcome to the forum. I did a few stints as crossing keeper on the Kent & East Sussex Railway many years ago. Cranbrook Road crossing is on Tenterden Bank, so if you can have a crossing keeper there then it avoids having to restart trains on the steep gradient.

Regards,
Tony

Hi Daivd, welcome to the forum. What part do you play in the resident madhouse all us volunteers call the Wensleydale Railway??
