    Mention of 9220 takes me back to 1973 and repainting it from its original weather beaten BR maroon into Carmine and cream. I carried out the work initially in the platform at Bridgnorth but finished it in the bay at Hampton Loade. Happy days :)

    Dont worry Gary. Hugh reminds us almost weekly of the early days at Bridgnorth.

    I don’t think that I had the luxury of painting indoors at Bridgnorth until Andy Williams and I built the paint shop in about 1980ish.
