    BTK 3669 to become a theatre Those of you who study every word of Moors Line will have noticed on page 63 of Issue 191 that it is planned to use a 1930’s carriage during Wartime Weekend to perform a play called ‘Bomb Happy’. The carriage in question is of course BTK3669, whose brake van area has been deemed suitable to be used as a small theatre. The owners of BTK3669 are delighted that it is going to be used for this purpose, as it is another opportunity to raise the profile of the Association. A Puzzle Picture Dave Cullingworth recently spotted a print of the photo below of a Howlden ECJS or GN clerestory coach, photographed in its later years as departmental No. 961503, for sale on E-bay. It raises some questions—can anyone help with the answers? What is obviously unusual about this coach is that it has had an underframe change -it is on a Gresley angle-trussed underframe with the characteristic clipped-head buffers. It couldn’t have received this earlier than the early 1930s when these were introduced. Why would such an elderly vehicle have a replacement underframe relatively late in its life? Any accident damage sufficient to write off an underframe Newsletter No. 106 August 2016 probably wouldn’t have done the body it carried much good either!

    Bulletin D'informations

    Bulletin d’informations - décembre 2017 Gérard Passionné par les trains, Gérard aurait pu faire carrière au chemin de fer. Mais le hasard de la vie l’a conduit sur une autre voie. Appelé par sa profession à de fréquents déplacements, c’est le train qui avait sa faveur. Il connaissait tous les détails de son itinéraire, les correspondances, les tarifs. Au fil de ses voyages, il s’était constitué une collection de documents et de livres sur nos chemins de fer qu’il a poursuivi après sa retraite. En les feuilletant, on retrouve bon nombre de petites lignes aujourd’hui disparues. Pour nous, amis du rail, cela constitue une richesse inestimable. C’est une page de l’histoire de nos régions et de nos chemins de fer. Il en a fait don à notre association, ce qui va nous permettre de poursuivre nos recherches. Cette passion pour le chemin de fer, ce désir de faire revivre les petites lignes ont conduit Gérard à faire plus. C’est ainsi qu’il s’est beaucoup impliqué dans les associations de chemins de fer touristiques. On le retrouve en Sologne sur la ligne du Blanc – Argent, sur le train à vapeur de Touraine où avec son ami Léon Brunet il contribue activement à l’exploitation de la ligne. Mais malheureusement, l’aventure n’a pas eu de suite. C’est dommage, mais cela ne l’a pas découragé. C’est alors, toujours avec son ami Léon, qu’il part pour la Sarthe sur la TRANSVAP. Cette association s’est constituée pour faire revivre le chemin de fer de Mamers à Saint-Calais sur une portion de 17 km entre Connérré et Bonnétable.
