[Tim Dunn @MrTimDunn]

A joyful day with fellow Heywood Society members today, at @BarnardsRailway Essex. This 1 ¼ mile 7 ¼” gauge line is open to public many weekends, but today was a private visit so we had driver training, goods and branch line exploration. A public thank you therefore to our volunteer hosts, many of whom work on the Big Railway - @c2c_Rail @TfL @networkrail and more.

Also a special thanks to Matthew R who let me take out his Mardyke HST power car and one of the superbly tuned-out Mk3s for a couple of miles: whilst I have recently sold my own similar unit it was a delight to take this bit of BR Advertising history out for a spin and to learn some new track.

A thoroughly enjoyable day out at a railway with a well-curated outdoor sculpture collection and an owner who is generous with access and resources. #BarnardsFarm is well worth a visit. Cheers!

Highlander was released OTD in 1986 - A THREAD
The opening sword fight is supposed to take place in Madison Square Gardens' car park, it's actually a London fruit market. The sparks were created by having wires up the actors arms attached to car batteries.

Why, in the name of Johnson, is there a ‘w’ in ‘sword’?
Jus’ wondrin’.

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

The Battle of Bamber Bridge, 1943.

Racist US military police attacked black US troops on British soil.

US military authorities demanded the town’s pubs impose a colour bar, the local landlords responded with signs that read “Black Troops Only” which pissed them off.
