This is the original forum of the Bristol Railway Archive that existed between 2003 and 2013. I finally rescued it after it seemed unrecoverable after a large crash. I have made it available for viewing. It is locked, all posts to the new version please!
The first time I ever heard a 57 my jaw hit the floor. My brain couldn't connect what I was seeing with what I was hearing. I think an HST sounding like this is going to do the same. Very weird!
