 This was without doubt my favourite area and almost every Saturday I would meet

 up with many friends there, if you frequented this section during the 1950s we

 would almost certainly have met.

 In the early fifties my camera was a folding Brownie with a top aperture speed of

1x100 sec, and trying to capture any loco exceeding 30mph was a lost cause,

 things did improve, from 1953 when I obtained a Russian copy of a Zeis Ikon, this

 opened a whole new world for me.

 

 These are my efforts to capture the atmosphere in those heady days.
