Hi Jordan :wave:
I did once get caught getting over the fence at Westwick Lodge Works - got into a bit of trouble for that and yet my punishment was to help in kettle disposal and cleaning out boiler tubes etc. :lol: :lol: :lol: It helps being only 6" tall you see :lol: :lol:
Yes I see what you are saying, and altough I didnt really spot, we did used to get as close as possible to the tracks, there were more level crossings then too, so we took some risks trackside
I think that, years later, when I at least got PTS qualified, and trackside when things like Tampers sneak up on you it really makes you stop and think, yet as a kid you're fearless - or were we just stupid? :lol: :lol:
I was lucky enough to go to Swindon open days so that gave me all I needed
In addition dad would take me to Salisbury and Bournemouth etc. that's where I got my love of '33's
