Had a fun time at the Slough & Windsor Railway Society Model Railway exhibition yesterday. I was operating our club layout Wokingham for the first time.

Do check out the show if you’re in the area today: www.swrs.co.uk/swrsweb/html...

Time for a bit of random 1980s nostalgia I reckon.

13 years ago today I managed to catch 70013 ‘Oliver Cromwell’ passing through Reading station with its support coach. I like to think the toot on the whistle was for me! 🚂🚉
