Revision as of 16:43, 11 June 2016

I live within a short walk of shed 84F (Stourbridge Junction), where I am enjoying an early retirement.

I have been an SVRSevern Valley Railway member for a few years, and signed up with the VLO in summer 2014 (although yet to take up the reins). I am also a life member of the 82045 fund and a shareholder in the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway.

All photographs that I have submitted to this site have been taken from locations accessible to the general public. Please respect the SVRSevern Valley Railway policy on lineside photography
