Took the dog for walk yesterday to one of my favourite places locally.

The remains of Mangotsfield Station which was on the Midland railway between Bristol and Bath.

Amazing place to explore so much history here.

Yesterday I managed to find the subway that linked all the platforms.

I think I might just have to make a short video about it, what do you think?

What happened to Tugs? Models & Interviews! Documentary

Thomas the Tank Engine may grab the limelight, however a related series that first started in 1989 ramped up the quality in a charming show set in the 1920s called Tugs.

Sadly, Tugs only survived a single series however its legacy is one of great fondness.

A few years ago, I was lucky enough to view the real models up close in this documentary.
