Your drawings keep them alive Paul!

Thank you for your very kind comment Carole. I had not thought of that, but I suppose you are correct as my granddaughter was asking about them and how they worked etc.

You always find something interesting to draw. Good work, Dixie.

Thank you Lew and Richard for you kind comments.

Fiona thank you for you comments they are much appreciated. I still love the smell of steam engines, not to keen on the candy floss though.
