Hello!

Just found this site so thought I would join in! Long-term railway enthusiast and ex-BR employee, now currently member of Bluebell Railway and the Bulleid Society. Big fan of the Southern Railway if you hadn't guessed!

Aside from railways, I like all kinds of transport including buses, cars, paddle steamers, etc. Ex-member Medway Queen Preservation Society and London Bus Preservation Trust, was involved with the North Downs Steam Railway when it was in Chatham Dockyard. My life going in circles, I also now have been involved professionally with the current railway set-up at Chatham, moving some exhibits around for them.

My other main interest, in fact my obsession is my 1968 Series 2A Land Rover (see website for more!). I alos dabble in models and can be found under 80064 on the NRM forum.

Hope to be able to make a positive input here and if you've not hung yourself reading this drivel so far, so much the better!

Welcome to the forum S/Steam. We have a few Southern fans on this site, and I have to admit that there are a few Southern locos that I like as well. I am not a great fan of buses as I drove them for Bristol Omnibus for 8 years. Series 2A Land Rover, I worked on a few of them as an apprentice in the Rhodesian Army. Hope you enjoy the forum and post lots.

Welcome to the forum SouthernSteam.

I'm quite keen on the SR (both the Railway and Region) myself. I'll look forward to reading your posts.

Top pics there, I will have to trawl through them sometime when my eyes are less tired, promise!

My avatar is this shot taken on the Bluebell Railway last July of Bulleid Pacific Blackmoore Vale running round at Kingscote:
