STEAM TRAINS TO THE LEFT, STEAM TRAINS TO THE RIGHTIntroduction by David Hey. When asked by Coastline Radio 9. FM a local radio station on the Costa del Sol to talk about train spotting in the Sixties, the idea did not sit easily with me and just as I feared, when I opened my mouth to speak, a lot of emotional twaddle came out. Thats because the shock of seeing so many once proud and still serviceable steam locomotives being towed away for scrap is engraved in granite, and stuff like that doesnt go away that easily. It was the end of civilization as I knew it. But the misery didnt end there. When Beeching became BR chairman in 1. Not only did he orchestrate thousands of station closures, he slashed the railway network by half, and had the radio station given me a chance to explain this perplexing and, some would say, chaotic background to train spotting in the Sixties then I could have voiced my opinions in a more rational manner. But the producer didnt want a mind numbing lecture on railway history It might send listeners into a coma, he said. Well, he couldnt have put it more eloquently, though how anyone can describe the twilight years of steam as being deadly dull is the same as saying that people like me should be pitied and thats just asking for trouble.

Thats why I started the David Heys Collection website back in 2. It began as a rehabilitive form of exercise, a means of stimulating the few remaining grey cells I have in retirement. This site is meant to be a hobby, pure and simple it gives me the chance to showcase some old rail photos on the web and for anyone to share their old train spotting memories with others. As a result, the site has just grown and grown, though this is not entirely down to me it would not have been possible without the generous help of dozens of photographers, all of whom have searched through old negatives, prints and slides to find suitable pictures to fill the gaps of my own collection. I am grateful to everyone, of course, but in an odd sort of way their help has given rise to some misunderstanding. Fast forward a couple of years and the domain name, David Heys Collection is something of a misnomer. It implies that the site contains photographs from my own collection that all the photographs belong to me. LET ME MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THEY DONTFind the latest business news on Wall Street, jobs and the economy, the housing market, personal finance and money investments and much more on ABC News. Canadian steam engines, train stations, cabooses, train bridges, railway artifacts, railway maintenance equipment, other old rolling stock, railway tunnels, grain. Worse still, I risk delivering a snub to the dozens of cameramen whose generosity allows me to post so many photos on the site in the first place, which is definitely not what I intended. And in case youre wondering, the name David Heys Collection was chosen because the Embsay Bolton Abbey Railway and Lost Railways of West Yorkshire websites adopted this name back in 2. I contributed photos to both sites and so I merely followed their lead. Getting to the point. Alas forgetfulness is one of the foibles of old age  a senior moment, as its often called and its not until you dig deeper into your subconsciousness ferreting through memories shoved furthermost to the back of your mind that the foggy confusion suddenly clears.

However, dreams were inspired by this The mid afternoon stopping train left our station at four six six. It occurred to me, years later, that the only reason I went to that school was. I spent half my afternoon lessons wondering. I would see later. Its a great pity children are not similarly. My vantage point for seeing it was a bridge further up. The four six was always. I learnt much more about literature, geography and history, from the. I ever learnt in my afternoon lessons. And, its. appearance from the short tunnel, a slow and gradual revelation, was always. It was a mixed train I doubt there are such things anymore. It was always long, and it was always on time. I never. caught the four six, although I wish I had, and I cant imagine now, the people. They were obviously people in no hurry people with time and patience. It started. its journey in a woolly, industrial city Bradford then, beyond the smaller.

It arrived in Patna early in the evening, where it. I was swept. along the platform and up over the bridge, toward the exit. From the bridge, I. I could. see the telltale black smoke of a steam engine, rising beyond the signal. I wanted to turn around and. I couldnt. It. was the last time I ever saw a steam engine in India, and I didnt really see. The following day, I waited patiently and optimistically, but there were. But Im not being unduly.
