Town Carriage museum & Bob

The carriage museum was a brilliant free exhibit in Peterborough with quite a lot of local rail history and memorabilia.

The seat even shudders as the train clippity clunks over the rails. "ALL ABOARD! "

He was loved by crewman and some of the regular passengers. His favourite spot to ride was high up on the coal tender.Leia mais
