From NB : Looks like the current state of my greenhouse.. From MP : did any of the covers blow off in the wind? From MD : The fellow in the light coloured jacket is looking the same way as the flat cap fellow. From NB : Matt - Mary Fair used them to make bloomers… From GFM : The canopies certainly didn't last beyond the first season - our theory was they were a bit dainty for the gusts across the marsh... From MH : Model T Ford From MD : A Heywood looking frame lying upside down in front From MP : is this the LMS visit? From GFM : Damn big molehill From SD : Is there a list since 1960? From CG : Climbing towards the current Fisherground loop I'd say From MP : or the long straight to where Gilberts cutting is now? From SD : It is same train - passengers are the same! From MP : what's the box/square in the centre right? From MP : yes, sorry, the bag From MP : did they ever consider putting in a proper platform at Dalegarth cottages?

From DAC : Stanier didn't come to the LMS until c. 1930 From GFM : Oh wow it is! From KS : which is Stanier please?
