GWR LONG ROCK OPEN DAY, 


Pierre le Bretton, Eduard Pierre le Bretton, Robin Coles and myself,and my wife Margaret attended the very special event
on Saturday,to name two engines. 


We were fundraising for the RNLI What a wonderful if cold day. 


Thank you to all those involved, and those who contributed, giving us a marvellous total of £152.82.


It was also good to talk to so many friends who came in to say hello The first photo is of my model of the Solomon Browne Lifeboat, alongside the engine named after the Lifeboat and lost crew.

well done all of you, and it is just fantastic to see a locomotive named after a lifeboat and one paying tribute to those bravemen of Mousehole and Penlee

A very fitting tribute. and well done to you all.
