Smile Hello to the Enthusiast Community!
Hi, I'm new. I've been interested in trains for as long as I can remember, especially the LNER and the world famous A4, Mallard. Since then, I've learnt more, and I have become just as interested in the LMS. If anyone can teach/me or tell me about the Grouping Period in Staffordshire, I'll be glad to make their aquaintance.


Anyway, It's great to meet everybody and become part of the community

Welcome aboard LNER_Nut. Like you, I too Love Mallard and have done for many years, even to now owning four different models of it.

Thanks, bramleyman. I have never understood why Mallard is so less publicised than Flying Scotsman.

Welcome to the Forum LNER_NUT.

What would you like to know about the grouping period in Staffordshire? A good starting point is: "Portrait of The North Staffordshire Railway," by Rex Christiansen. pub. Ian Allen.

Best wishes,

John H-T.

Welcome to the Forum LNER_NUT. I fired on Mallard occasionally whilst working at Kings Cross.

Wow, Locojoe - respect! You are a God !!! Maybe I watched you flying past on your trusty steed in the 60's.
