Mad about Steam Trains, Speedway, Coventry City and my lovely Wife Wendy and our family.
Travelled by train today from Lausanne to London via Paris. Best way to see wonderful countries and perhaps mourn the stupidity of our leaving the EU. Frictionless travel, single currency and free roaming have now been flushed down the toilet. Grrrrrr!

That's Ribblehead with the appropriately named loco "Ingleborough" hauling freight from the sidings at Ribblehead station.

Saturday. 3 o'clock kick off 😳 our ground after twenty years and a 7-1 win. I think that's what you call a near perfect day!

Lovely surprise today at Severn Valley Railway Arley - The Stanier Mogul working its way back to Bridgnorth after starring in the #Rail200 Derby extravaganza....

Looks lovely.
Yesterday in Coventry....
St. Pauli were lovely opponents - nice fans (fair few too) and their management and fans laid wreaths at Cov Memorial Park in the morning. Were into reconciliation hereabouts so well received 👏👏👏

"We can't accommodate more than two cars at the Arena" eh West Midlands Railway? Wasted your money on these stop boards then didn't you?

Spectacular performance by #pusb shirt ordered late-ish yesterday pm and delivered circa 11.30 today by EVRi (well done to them too). BTW - this is the promotion shirt - you heard it here first 👍

One of my favourite places to be. Arley on the Severn Valley Railway is truly a step back to tranquility...

En route to Severn Valley Spring Diesel Gala for a duty. Rail abbreviations sometimes throw up something interesting. In future I shall call this journey "doing an Eccles"!

The lady speaks the truth. Winston Churchill believed that a united europe would be our future safeguard against Nazism...

My mate Bob's funeral today. Really sad to have not made it (medical stuff myself). Been a chum for 18 years and a great guy; proper Coventry chap, and so dedicated to the Severn Valley Railway. Chuffed to have known you Bob.
