Where is the old website?
The old website is no longer maintained but it can still be viewed "as is" by clicking here.
Browsers
The website pages seem to work best on Firefox and Chrome. Some odd effects occur when viewed in IE which I have tried, and failed, to correct.

Dedication
These pages are dedicated to the memory of an ex-Somerset & Dorset Railwayman, Derek Edge 1927-1996, my Dad, who worked in the fifties and early sixties at Sturminster Newton, Blandford and Bailey Gate Stations, and who gave me no chance of escaping a lifetime interest in all things railway. He even managed to give his growing son a bedroom window with a wonderful view across the Dorset countryside, with trains passing in the middle distance, including the mid-afternoon "Bailey Gate Belle". Thanks, Dad.
