It's nice :)

Hello. I went down on Sunday :) Was glad to see a red one there as well as I have been wanting to see one of the red ones.

Hello. I am new :) I went on a SRPS rail tour the other week from Perth to Broomhill. I was in first class and thought it was very nice. I got one of the single seats. There was a gentleman on his own opposite me and on the return journey he got talking for a short time with the chap to his left...
