Can anyone help me please with my recollections of "Rail Enthusiast" magazine? One of the columnists who wanted to remain anonymous revelled in adopting an amusing railway-related pseudonym each month, for example:
Neville Hill
Miles Platting
James Street
Stewart Slane
Milton Keynes
Healey Mills
John Stone
Peter Borough
Bill Ingham
Mick le Field
Mark Stey
Robert S Bridge
etc.

Can you suggest any more? It was a long list but I can only think of those few!

Apologies for going off topic here but the Railtour reviews were very funny! All my magazines were chucked 20 odd years a go so I have no way of knowing who penned them.

That one's a missed opportunity... Brad Ford-Forster (Esquire) would be better/more ridiculous.

A few others that might well have been good...

Davey Junction of mid-Wales
Mel Scopp of Merseyside
Barry Lands of Surrey
Ray N. Spark of South West London

What about the great playboy Lew Isham, Brent Wood, Sev Enoaks and, the one who wanted to be alone, Greta Portland-Street, possibly a relation of Janet of that parish?

Perhaps not an enthusiast magazine, but Private Eye's "Dr B. Ching".
