Dr Beeching was a man who made the 'beeching report', in an attempt to cut spending costs, he closed down many many branch lines, stations etc, about 4000 route miles in total, and sent steam to the scrapyards to modernise the rail networks, using diesel power.
despite all this, it made hardly any difference.

That Merchant Navy class engine is beautiful again. 35027 port line will always be beautiful and she'll go on forever. :)

Shame about that 9f Dai Woodham was talking about it hasnt been bought or touched real shame...

Dr. Beeching did what was best for BR,
and the scrap yards did what they thought was best as well...
it is good to preserve old steam locomotives, but believe me here, the ubiquitous creatures of steam will outlast the survival of humanity, whether we try or not...
i have less hope for the survival of the computer, and knowledge stored electronically...
stone and iron will soldier on...
