OldLimeyGit Posted October 22, 2011 Share #1 Posted October 22, 2011 Hi everyone, as my username suggests, I am a 67YO Englishman, originally from London, now living in Crewe, Co Cheshire. (158 miles from London Euston). I used to live in Woodford, Co Essex, next to what is now the Central Line of the London Underground (Surface) I am a retired railwayman, my career covering train control and signalling. I am a member of the London Underground Railway Society, and a member of "District Dave's Underground Forum". District Dave was a T/O Instructor at Upminster Depot, who, sadly passed away this year - however the site lives on. I have come over to NYC four times now, the lat time in April 2007 for a 5 day stay, when it rained the whole time! Obviously I cannot contribute much to the forum, being so far away,(unless it relates to LU) but I would appreciate the opportunity to ask the occasional question if I cannot find the answer from any other source. I have Peter Dougherty's excellent "Tracks of the NYC Subway" book (how I wish someone could produce a similar volume for LU!), which, fortunately can be shop purchased in London. I do not know anybody in NYC so I hope to get to know some of you guys, even if it is through a keyboard and mouse. Cheers! Geoff. Midgley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GojiMet86 Posted October 23, 2011 Share #4 Posted October 23, 2011 Welcome to the forums, Geoff Midgley! I also wish that there was a publication of the Tube like Peter Dougherty's book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
