Hi Neil, I was one of the first members of the SVR, (In the days of the station being shut but illegal drinking going on all day in the refreshment room) If thay saw the police coming across the footbridge they ran across the tracks & through the fields to escape. We worked hard at weekends digging out drainage ditches & weed killing on the tracks for a few years. Then the only members who were noticed were those who would donate lots of money. The picture below is a rail cart we modified for powered use (and me looking much younger) http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2065580310028520097cnDlbi Dave Croft Warrington http://oldengine.org/members/croft/ http://community.webshots.com/user/crftdv Yahoo!
