The place was full of people in WWII uniforms or civvies, and everyone looked as if they were having a great time, and someone was singing wartime favourites on a PA. I can't find any reference to it on the Net, which is astonishing. Any 'Catters round those parts who can fill me in? Steve |

Alas the train stood at the platform on the piece to camera had an engine that was not designed until after the war was over and most of the carriages looked BR too (post 1948) |
