    Well, technically the system of linked documents that this forum is built on is actually the World Wide Web, which is a British invention... :smile:

    Also, as it hasn't been called Midland Railway Centre since 2003, can we call it Midland Railway - Butterley? ;)

    Nice photos though!

    Is that Utterly Butterley or I Can't Believe It's Not Butterley?
