    I add my thanks for the plan, I have printed it off on A3 and hopefully this will aid my intention to be methodical this year! Usually I come in like the proverbial kid in a sweet shop dash about and end up missing things! JIm

    In Scotland Fells are known as Bens, but as you are in the Lowlands they will be Small Bens, which of course are HR 4-4-0s. Ben Alder anyone?

Twenty years ago, if someone had said that you could witness the prototype Mk3s being hauled by a steam locomotive that was newer than them, and a class 47 on the back that was the real vintage part of the train they would have had you sectioned!
