Hi everybody, I came across your site whilst surfing for info on the refurbished 158 and decided to sign up.

I confess to being a FGW (First Great Western) employee, I come from a railway family and have myself been on the railways for 12 years, total family service so far is 176 years between us.

This is a great site  Cool
