Title: Volume 49 Issue 5 - February 2022
Post by: clayliner on January 25, 2022, 12:18

Thanks for another interesting and informative issue, Stuart - a good variety of articles offering plenty of inspiration.

It was interesting to read (in Branchlines) of the difference in pulling power of the Bachman(n) double Fairlie in different parts of the country. I can only think that the higher rainfall they get in the south-west means greasier rails and loss of adhesion down there.

And just in case anyone is wondering, the proceeds of the Colehill show went to support prostate cancer research!

David.

There is a fine  BBC R4 comedy drama starring Gary Wilmot (who keeps repeating that malapropism) and Stephen Tomkinson that deals with the subject of prostate cancer.

My copy of the news arrived today - it looks like another cracking issue of a wide variety of topics. Excellent!
