Yes Congratulations Tom Following in his Fathers Footsteps or should I say Track!!!
Toms Jinty is an inspiration and he read out a list of faults with the drawings??
That's why there are so few built even up North!!!

Is there anyone on here from the Cambridge Club? After not going for many years I decided to attend the Alumni weekend only to find that the college I attended is almost opposite the club track. I wondered whether there would be anything going on next Saturday 28th September.

1987 - 1988. Wolfson College, under Mike Sharman a well known railway enthusiast and avid collector. His collection was simply stunning.

Ah, well after my time. Fitzwilliam 1968-1971, and I haven't been back since.
