I was in the loft
today searching for the odds and ends of left over carpet when i stumbled
across a old book hidden underneath two old pieces of wood.
The old book
happened to be a A 1963 British Railways Passenger Services Booklet of the
North Eastern England. The book back then only cost a shilling, it was still in
great condition as well - the pages are beautiful and full or rich text and
train times.
If anyone knows anything about
the value of history of the book please drop me an email i would be grateful
for more information!
Finding the book
not only made me appreciate our history but also my love for trains. As a boy
trains were our first love and many of us regardless of the generation will
have been entranced by Thomas the tank.
So yer here is a
little of 50 year old history waiting to be found. I haven't yet been able to
fully search the attic for other hidden treasure but it does make me think what
else do we all have hidden away without even knowing we could be living with
something historically or financially priceless.
Get out your loft
ladders and search!
