Cheers Bill!
Happy 50th Birthday, Brian, and many happy more!!
I’ve been chasing them since that day with Bob back 1982. Still haven’t caught one though.
Happy half-century Brian. Hope you’ll be able to chase those Turbotrains some day.
Back in the day I never would have imagined my Kodachrome Reading Ramble slides would be published electronically by my son some 50 years hence!
Happy birthday
Thanks Paul!
