Yes, I grew up in Winterthur and did my apprentice as a mechanic at the SLM. I was always fascinated with trains and locomotives. However I was not involved in work around the steam engines.
Thanks, trekky; yes I'm a stickler for details! Interesting to meet someone involved with the art of steam - did you work in SLM Winterthur? Their "re-birth" in 1992 must have been fascinating but I didn't follow what happened after.
