• (Ready Steady Go)!

      Not only does the Railway make me redundant of firing and 2nd manning diesel duty! But to transport me to a National Airport to fly far off to Africa! What other employer could manage that I ask? My materials of UK, Of cast iron or Asbestos is now Ductile or Stainless steel? Its the same set up of pipe network and various filtration methods with Sedimentation and Aeration etc. My boss at Doden barracks President Gowen escapes with his life! General Muhammed takes over, But is not so fortunate on his own Coup! So then its General Alisugin Abassinjo! I’ve quite a few photo’s that I must re-picture with my mobile sometime! But I spose a rail forum is hardly the place? But when you think back to the hundreds of fireman that were made redundant in 1967! Then what ever became of them all is a valid talking point on a rail forum? Even my old Shunter would be part of a bottoming up gang in the UK that I had to lay my pipes? ‘Tea break’ times might re-live my shunting times at his yard? For even more water under the bridge? (Memories) Forgive the pun! PS, I’ve baled out to rescue my boat! The rivers going by about 20 mile n hour! Such rain! And floods! Think I have another beer?
