Rail Blue memories part 2
1st January 1982 to 1st February 1982

A lot of Scottish slides here from desperate rover days in the 80's. I have also added (on 24th Jan 2007) a lot more scans from all over the country, remember the days? Freedom of the East Midlands? Heart of Englands, Anglia day rovers? I hope you enjoy them, and that they bring back a few memories of when the railway was real and not plastic....
