I Like Trains

I grew up on the railway! I am one of the railway children. i know more about trains than about cars! I know nothing about cars. But i love diesel class 66. The ones that come to take the coal.

I belong to a miniature railway club and we have 2 Class 66 locomotives in 7 1/4” scale. I keep them running. I’ve got the bogie of one in my workshop which is being renovated.

You do? Class 66 is all we see! Collecting the coal! I love your name. Stonehenge. Welsh stone! @Stonehenge

Ours are big beasts. Six electric motors and they are 6 ft long. We take passengers round. I assume you must be Welsh with a name like yours. I grew up in the steam era.

My loco

Yes. I am Welsh. All we see is class 66. Coming to collect the coal. I am amazed you even heard of these engines! You know the photo of the steam engine? Did you make that?

Yes, everything except the boiler

Sorry, it was only my loco running, nothing inappropriate

I just am amazed you built that! @Stonehenge

Why😂

Funny tho, lots of people say, “did you make that “ I look left and right and think, well, don’t you think I look like I can.

No seriously it took me 10 yrs to build and it weighs half a ton

And yet you did it.

I hope you don’t mind me writing to you. It’s quite unusual for a young woman to be interested in railways.

I love what you have done, i know it has taken years. I went to Lancaster County High. There were teachers who loved to make models of trains. I sort of loved to too! I wasn’t supposed to!

What do you mean you weren’t supposed to, did you feel it odd because you were female and maybe you felt you shouldn’t. I love the fact you do,

I could go to the driver of the Flying Scotsman and say who I am and get to Edinburgh without a ticket!

Not if the Bishop knows. I shall be shunned. I’m a bit naughty. I sail close to the wind! @Stonehenge
