I take my students to York each year, and seeing these pictures reminds me of some of the joys of teaching |

I will be in York next month. It's been many years since I last went to the Rail Museum so hopefully will get there then!

Lovely pics, David, I especially like that one of you beside the Midland Compound 4-4-0, no.1000. Last time I was in that museum was at the railway bi-centenary festival in 2004.

Fab pics David. Elaine and myself really must make an effort one day and get to York. I would love to look around this museum (Cilted of course  ). You've now set a standard for all x markers who go there!

Derek | When you do manage to visit York, try and make time to take one of the guided "Ghost Tours" in the evening! I went on one a few years ago, and it was very entertaining! |  | | | X Marks Advertisers |  | For Quality Scottish Made Products at Affordable Prices |  |  | | | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
