You've been recommended by my son who was with the "Growler Group" yesterday. What excellent videos you produce ! I started in 1986 with a VHS camera hired from Radio Rentals at £50 for the weekend. I've kept all those videos, and over 1500 more and still recording at 81 years of age. Keep up the good work, and save everything you record..Mike Wilcock..Rails in Wales.

Still goimg strong even not far off its 70th birthday. Indeed some of the last standard classes of steam loco were built after this. Thats why i dont get why some people turn their nose up at diesels, albeit a small minority these days. The SVR diesel galas are at least as well attended as the steam ones. I appreciate both.
