Now I know why our crowds are so low, you are all out spotting trains. If Lee Power could get an old Loco on the Bank, would that entice all you Saddo's back  |

Bring back the football special.
Looks like the one that went to Wrexham in 77.
Absolutely not. There isn't a beer can in sight. |

With some awesome old signals
No no no no no, no no no, no. Signals are not awesome regardless of whether or not they are old or new. Futuristic signals... perhaps. But new or old signals... NO. They are not awesome. They are about as awesome as traffic lights and pelican crossings which score about exactly zero on the 'awesome' scale'. But train people might disagree, so here's your own thread. You guys be like this....

Does anyone remember the special to Burnley where a passing trains door flew open and smashed the carriages windows showering some of our fans in glass. Some people had bad injuries from that, so my mates on the train told me.
Must of been about 1984-85 time

Was on that train. Think it happened at Crewe station - I thought a bomb had gone off the noise it made

No, FH, sorry. Old stuff is awesome  How about the old road signs that I remember from my yuff before the hideous new "continental" signs came in? They said what they meant and were quintessentially BRITISH  Love the official "Public Lavatories" ones  |

As sad as it is, I do miss the old engines with the ridiculous sound before they departed the station
