[paul stacey]

Lovely photo stitcher, how that brings back memories for me.

 

[Stitcher]

Now I have to admit that I have little or no interest in trains, steam or electric although I did have fun putting pennies on the rails and retrieving them when a train had flattened them out a little.
I will post a few more pics because I have found some, the problem is that I seem to be getting in a mess rather than getting out of one.

 

[Bernard67Arnold]

Some of you may remember, I posted a collection of locos issued as a calendar by
the Derbyshire Building Soc; now swallowed up by Nationwide, after getting their
permission I might add. Bernard

 

[Stitcher]

Harborne Station 1950 and the first train since 1934.

Not being an engine follower, don't know which type of engine, but what a great sight on Battersea Rail bridge for the Jubilee celebrations.

Sue. I think it is called The Princess Elizabeth and is from Tysely Birmingham?. Les Ross was on about it the other day on WM. Jean.

 

[Bernard67Arnold]

It was LMS Sue, my Dad was a GWR man, Gods Wonderful Railway, Bernard

[Ray Griffiths]

What a great item to place Princess Elizabeth on the that bridge, this class of engines which wasn't ever blinkered. used to love to see it on the Glasgow run fron Euston at Lichfield T/V railway station

City of Birmingham on it's length of track before the new building was built over it at the old Newhall Street site

Hi

Some good footage from Tyseley to London on U Tube of Princess
Elizabeth. Poor old City of Birmingham dead as a do do yet the Societies
that run 6201 carry on. We owe them a lot.
Clearly the costs of re-steaming 6235 in these days would be awesome.
Personally it would be better to be sent to Tyseley and start some sought of
Society to re-build her back to her former glory. At least try something
