“Ramblings from a preserved Railway”

This site and it's contents unless otherwise stated are © 2005 - 2013 Robert Maskill


 Welcome to the web site of “Old Arkwright”.

On this site you will find some stories of my first five years on The Nene Valley Railway, and also a link to the “Blog” that I now keep most running days.

Hopefully you will find something of interest here and it may encourage you to perhaps visit the railway and who knows even become a working member.

 You may even recognise yourself in one of the blog entries, if you do then you can relax in the knowledge that your visit  has left it’s mark.   However, please note that some marks run deeper than others!

 If you have any comments on the stories, blog or site itself then please don’t hesitate to drop me an email using the link at the top of the page, or even better pop and see me any running day at Orton Mere Station.
