Thanks again, it looks like there maybe a lot of walking involved

Many thanks, it looks worth a visit

Could anyone tell me if it's possible to view the stored trains at Long Marston. I have mobility problems and not sure if it involves a lot of walking. Any advice much appreciated

The good old days Being wrapped across your knuckles with the wooden side of a blackboard duster Whenever you banged heads at school the playground teacher would send you to the kitchen to have butter rubbed on the bump. Happy memories
