Sad News

Sad news reached us today when we discovered that Eric Walker (builder of our steam engine No. 10) passed away last Christmas. We had a lovely time and were warmly welcomed by Eric and his wife Gloria when we enjoyed an inspirational visit to his Kirton Light Railway. Since then we have received much help and encouragement from Eric with building our KLR. We've appreciated Eric's help over the years and he will be sadly missed by us.
There was much more to Eric's life than the building of 7 1/4 inch gauge locomotives...........Mike at Station Road Steam has published a page about Eric's remarkable life at http://www.stationroadsteam.co.uk/b…/Eric%20Walker/index.htm
