MellishR liked 61624's post in the thread West Somerset Railway General Discussion.

I have followed the recent 53808 saga with a mixture of sadness and disgust. It was 53808 that first brought me to the WSR over 40 years ago now. No locomotive has more connection with the line and meant more to we old stagers and those at...

Sheff liked Vulcan Works's post in the thread Peak Rail General Discussion.
