East Lancashire Railway October Steam Gala 22nd/23rd October 2011

And that is why I had to go three carriages back on one of the trains to find a window, never mind a seat... (sighs), the trains were VERY well loaded, the platform at Bury was heaving at times as the train entered from Heywood....

 

That's good that we have his ear, probably best remaining anon to avoid undue critiscm, however if they were to do some quiet note taking and maybe privately reach out to a few people, I would imagine the response would be very positive and hopefully lead to better galas, after all no one is saying give up doing galas, but some posts seem to hint that they are over overburdensome and other activities are giving a better ROI...
I am sure everyone would agree here is that a better gala would leave to better perception, better patronage And make them more worthwhile.

I'm long dead! Don't take life so seriously, guys. It's all merely a bit of fun!

 

Is it me or do other members find it strange that two new members have recently joined the forum with user names of deceased persons from Lostock Hall shed??

 

("Chuckle!")

 

Hmm the moderators know this as well.
It's interesting that the user shares his information in common with several others user id's.
Now would you think it odd if the deceased were then to proceed to deBate and lateR arguE with themselves...
a squabble amongst 'ghosts' on an internet forum, now theres a conumDrum. 'ala's thought these old ghosts would be enjoying the life of ...,s ''Ghost". not o'N'ly in 'castle's. How Bizarre, I am trying to UndeR stand whY, what junction?

What's this got to do with the shed code of Lostock Hall or the sub sheds of CrewE ?
Maybe at least 5 userids can help me figure it out but I'd be worried all five may not agree. I almost forgot that shed near Modewheel.. Who is number 17 at old TrafFord ?

 

Now, at long last, someone else with a sense of humour has entered into the spirit of it all!
