On 21st Sep 2015 2:43pm, Dreamtime said: I don't know what it was about Stations, but the smell used to fascinate me, must have been those lovely old steamers.
Sulphur! You get used to it after a while and don't notice it so much.
On a trip to Bolton once, after steam had been abolished between Coventry and Manchester Picadilly, we had to change at Manchester Victoria which was still running steam. To get from one platform to another we had to go down a subway. The smoke from a passing engine got sucked down the subway and I almost choked to death, not being used to it anymore.
For all the nostalgia it's likely that many of us would no longer be here if steam hadn't been abolished on the railways when it was.

I have to agree with you Dutchman despite the enjoyment of travelling by rail 'in the old days' it is not the same anymore, and thank you for your response. ![]() |

Yes, that's the one I like, I can almost smell it. It looks very well placed. Thanks for keeping us up to date Philip. ![]() |
