Indeed Colin, I really believe that during the early '60's there was a deliberate move to eradicate railways altogether. Luckily the unions,the railwaymen,the travelling public and the preservationists put a stop to this crazed attitude-and laid the pathway to the ultimate of privatisation. Less than perfect but at least all railways are valued and are even being reopened.
The railwayman is a special breed-it is a privilege to count myself in those ranks. The majority of railwaymen are anoraks-they do the job because they love it-it's why the industry has survived.
A couple of my mates from the CTRL construction are with now with Hitachi...their wheel turning lathe is amazing!
