@PannierTank Hi David, received and very much appreciated.

We've been recently made aware that author Kevin Derrick has very kindly dedicated his book Steam and the Scrapyards to Peter Hands. We'd like to thank him but unfortunately have no contact details. If anyone can help, please could you contact us? https://t.co/Ud8qjUjtnl

I have been asked an interesting question. Why does London’s Moorgate tube station have a mix of “traditional” bar-and-Circle roundels... and weird diamonds? Well... (1/6)

Dear @DominicRaab,

You utter plonker.

You've just instructed UK scientists to stop writing Horizon 2020 grant applications.

Part of the Dec 2017 agreement (& bill) was to continue in EU science to 2020. Now it's blown.

100% irresponsible.

We're overwhelmed with the number of Shares being purchased today at Kidderminster & Bridgnorth, thank you! We're open until 4.30pm...

The Ian Allen ‘Decline of Steam’ was Peters most treasured book. With photography like this it’s easy to see why. #keeponsteaming

Passion has to start some where. Peter's original spotting notes featuring 1964 notes. #trainspotting #locomotives #steamengines
