| My Mother is far right,
above. Some years later, being an engine driver was your webmaster's favourite
way of getting about! An exciting occupation - all the local boys wanted
a go on my red engine. There was even a clickety-click much like a "real"
train, as it trundled over the regular gaps in the pavement - and crossing
roads in it must have been less hazardous compared with today. Another
photograph with me sat in the driving position, appears in the History
Channel book & exhibition "Photos for the Future" ll. |

Not only are there collectors
of such items, many of which are beautifully restored, but intriguing
modern pedal vehicles for today's kiddies can also be found. |
