  1. ax1709cjm liked acorb's post in the thread 6880 Betton Grange.

    An excellent day. A timetable that worked well; very friendly, informative and chatty staff, volunteers and others; excellent food provision at Tenterden; and a wonderful display by the very large bumble bees frequenting the fairly small, but...

  12. MellishR liked alastair's post in the thread Saphos 2024.

  13. MellishR liked The Green Howards's post in the thread West Somerset Railway General Discussion.
