I have been interested in steam railways for as long as I can remember.
I spent many hours train spotting from about 1952- 55, then I took an interest in railway signalling, visiting 23 signal boxes. I worked for British Railways from September 1958 to June 1963, starting in Kidsgrove Booking Office (6 miles north of Stoke- on- Trent) and finishing at Brent (Cricklewood, North- West London) as a goods guards clerk.
