Memories of my life on Southern Railways from my junior porter days in the 1950s to retirement at senior management level, followed by my time as Safety Officer on the Isle of Wight Steam Railway. This book is not about engines or train numbers, but about the human element of real life on the railway. It covers the funny, the sad and the factual side of railways, with many anecdotes. Each story has a point to make, and tells how the railway functioned, not to mention mistakes made by me and lessons learned.
