My world of

RAILWAY'S

I've always been into Railways. first it was model railways, then it was the real thing. working for British Rail, first as a Signalman at Richborough  Sidings nr Minster Thanet. then as a passenger guard working between Ramsgate and London. and last as a main line driver over the same routes.

I'm at Ramsgate having just brought the Funderbolt down from London Victoria.

I left the Railway in 1998, I now work for an office supply Co. but back in 1978 my brother and myself started the Manston loco preservation group

Two views of Manston taken in Barry scrap yard. the last Battle of Britain class loco built for the southern railway. We paid £7500 for her. she is now being restored on the Swanage railway in Dorset.

I also build showcase model locos in 21/2" gauge in card to order.
