Biscuit. The RH&D Railway runs past the end of my garden. I will pass on your regards the next time Green Goddess steams by
If it ain't broke, fix it till it is. ;)

Had a great friend, Bob Hobbs, used to help him operate a 3.5g. railway on the Willow Tree caravan site, the RH&DR alsao ran at the bottom of his garden. George Barlow was my mentor on Green Goddess, watched me like a hawk. Alas Bob and George are no longer with us, together with Cyril Carter who drove Hurricane.

I am one of the countless many who have never met Alan in person but have benefitted from his immense knowledge of Plumstead products. I'm relatively new on this forum but have received loads of advice/IM's on what most would consider basic or already well discussed topics from Alan, this has allowed me to enjoy my Matchless a lot more, and that is what I believe this forum is about. I'm truly saddened by this news and wish Alan all the strength necessary to cope with this.

Alan is a true clubman.
A clever man can guess a woman's age,
A wise man never does.
