Re: Perrygrove and Heywood collection:
Thanks for crossing the T's and dotting the I's Stockers. It looks as if my vague knowledge about this was prettymuch correct in general terms (I got it from either or all NG News (NGRS Newsletter), NG World and Miniature Rlys mags), but your details have put a much clearer context on what happened.
Very interesting that you should meet both the founder and current owners of the railway Bill.
Back to Bill's inspiring and entertaining story of the goings on around Berger Hall and the gentlefolk who populate the area!
