Talking 777dixie



Hello all Just found forum and think Ive found the way to post after 5 goes, I am looking for some contact with past memories I served my time at Dumfries loco shed as a fitter/ turner/welder /miller, jack of all trades in those days, I was the last app before the beeching axe in Dumfries (67B) You had to serve 5 years then and in the fourth you were seconded to St Rollox for the year I was there in 1960 and stayed across from the works in Huntingdon Square with a couple of apprntices form Hurlford Owen McAllister and George McIver I was just wondering if there was any contacts still to the fore with similar memories ???

Welcome to the Forum Bert. My only connection with that area is that my father's family came from Thornhill.

Hope you enjoy the Forum.

Best wishes,

John H-T.
