Well let's hope you don't suffer from the wheel slipping that seems to
happen down here judging by the You Tube video of Sir Lamiel

Hi, Alan,

Best wishes, no need to say have a good day because you're going on a
steam train - wonderful!

Congrats Alan!

Your weather looks similar to ours. A steam-hauled train is a
good place to be today.

It was a Happy Birthday which we enjoyed very much. Another small
ambition realised.

Thanks to all!
