Thanks for mentioning the Lost Days of Steam Chris. Chris Pollington and I had fun making that and we've got hours of interviews with people most of which we couldn't put in the programme because of time restrictions. We had one fireman giving us chapter and verse on how to get a steam loco going and keep it running. Dave Goulder gave us some great stuff and the rest of the interviewees were coming up with loads of interesting stories.

There's another programme in the music well archive about Harry Boardman that we did if you're interested. Interviews with Mike Harding, Bill Leader, Bernard Wrigley, The Oldham Tinkers and other people who knew him.

Cheers
Mark
