The so called "Cathedral" class only ever reached the drawing board stage, either as a 4-6-2 or a 4-8-0. Whereas the Kings were already tried,...
As yet another aside, I read an article in Heritage Railway magazine about F.W.Hawkesworth and, what he failed to pick up on, was that Swindon was...
[ATTACH] And then, of course, there's always Norm Hodges version of a Cathedral!
No doubt the Railway's "Legal Beagles" are on to this, given that it is misleading information, although issued in good faith. Nevertheless, I...
Chris also went on to say (and I paraphrase) that, if you are a UK taxpayer then, a donation, of no financial benefit to you, will bring an...
