Richard,
In model form the frames don't bend to get round corners either - and those frame strikes have been there a very long time...

Something over twenty-five years Peter. I started training when we didn't have signals!

Were you a volunteer? If so we must have met somewhere along the way ...

No I was not a volunteer, at the time I was a shopfitter so worked stupid hours and a single parent time was sort of short. I still like to pop down when I am in the country.

Another haul, further to follow.

Sorry, as I said, these are just snaps, I am definitely not a photographer!

Phil,

Thanks for posting the shots of 30120 at Swanage - great detail. I was particularly interested in this having enjoyed a cab ride on 120 while she was at the Battlefield Line in December 2016. This shot shows departure from Shackerstone as the sun breaks through the mist on the morning of 30/12/2016.

Give me a head's up when you are next in the neighborhood - I feel a pint (or two) and a natter coming on!
