The Bristol Industrial Museum is holding a Terrific Trains day on Wednesday 15th Feb.
'This great day out will involve lots of hands- on activities exploring locomotives and railways. You can even climb aboard and have a ride on the harbour railway (ú1 return trip).'
Great stuff for half-term !

Well, it's alright for you, but I've got to look at that in the mirror every morning...

Most were either taken by my four year old, or of my four year old, but there's a couple of really nice pics in amongst them. Unfortunately, I've forgotten to bring the camera to work with me so I can download the pics.

I think he's talking about the steam crane that they have down there, rather than a loco. This thing:

Worth a visit when in steam, smells and sounds fantastic

Great pics! I know a lot of "photographers" much older with no eye for a photo, and a total lack of ability to line up a subject, let alone hold the camera level!
I think they're better than yours actually

Ahh, Grasshopper, the student is always better than the master.
(are you old enough to have any idea who 'grasshopper' is...
