This is a most enjoyable presentation! In the early '60s while still very young I spotted 'Winston Churchill', 'United States Lines', 'Clifton' and 'Tintagel', no doubt a few others
Its as if it was just yesterday Geoff😍 I often wonder if Brian Reeves, Ted Lewis,John Budd are still alive? Jim Grainger was my Traction inspector at Guildford. Wonderful Photo's. The BR 77 2 6 0 standard allocated to Guildford 70C actually hauled the VERY Last Steam Service on the 9th July 1967. The 20.50 Bomo to Weymouth Vans
I'm currently hooked on these vidoes, Geoff, thank you.

So enjoyable, what amazing photos!
The colour photos make those days from the 1960's look like yesterday
Excellent series of pictures - and commentary!
If anyone epitomises "living the dream", it would be you sir. What a life!
I was lucky to have fired a V2 at Marylebone when I was third manning with the rostered fireman. We only went as far as Woodford Halse.
Excellent coverage of many locomotives, bringing back many memories. Many thanks .

Great stuff Geoff, really enjoying this
Thank-you.
Was the end of steam a good thing?
High quality shots😀
