He ended up at Quainton Road, regretting that he could no longer get to Verney Junction. If it is repeated sometime, it is well worth watching. -- Terry Harper Website Coordinator, The Omnibus Society http://www.omnibussoc.org Thoroughly recommended. I have had the VHS tape for at fifteen years. It is one of my favorites. I believe it is now out on DVD. Adrian. |
