wolf.....interesting.......my family all worked on the Railways. They go back to the early 19th century, when they were farm labourers and when the Railways came to the East and Midlands in the late 19th century, the all moved off the land and moved to the GNR and later LNER where the pay was better, the work was less hard and housing was provided.

I'm in Perth - it was once a railway dominated town. My granddad, my dad and two of his brothers all worked on the railway. My dad was in Berlin during the air lifts for his little stint of national service and when he came back he joined the railway.
My brother was expected to carry on the tradition - but he is in IT in some 3rd world country called England. He is weird - he doesn't have a cat but has three children. And he says that I am the one who is crazy.

it involves all sorts of background information, reviewing footage, listening to tales etc.
the best bit is sitting in the dark with a night shot camera waiting to see if you have company. Sometimes nothing happens, sometimes a lot happens. The its back to try and recreate what happened, a lot of it is natural occurances or tricks of the brain.

sqad my grandfather was a lifelong railway employee and was based at Willesden Junction. For many years until retirement he worked on the footplate as the engineer and took the trains north until it was time to drive one back to finish his shift. Four of his sons followed him into railway work but none of them were on the footplate. I remember him taking me to the loco sheds on a Sunday morning when I was about 4 or 5........elf & safety wouldn't allow that now.
