  3. Spitfire liked damianrhysmoore's post in the thread North Norfolk Railway General Discussion.

    Mine from a very memorable day yesterday. Taken at Sheerwater Bridge between West byfleet and Woking, Bapton between Warminster and Westbury where I made a mistake about the direction of the exhaust. On the way back at Upton Scudamore and leaving...

  8. Spitfire liked green five's post in the thread 35028 Clan Line returns: 27/04/24.

    Hi, I'll endeavour to speak to the volunteers (although with volunteers you can only do so much, it is a very difficult game, trust me) sorry if you felt the way you were spoken to wasn't appropriate. The reason for no entry is because the event...
