Marilyn Rodgers could do just about anything with her Saturday off, but instead she chooses to vacuum a train terminal. The executive director of Buffalo’s Central Terminal Restoration Corporation (CTRC), a nonprofit that’s rehabilitating the city’s vacant train station, goes up and down yards of original Terrazzo flooring, sucking up dirt with an industrial-strength cleaner. “I have to clean my house,” she jokes of the 523,000 square foot space where she frequently visits.

Terma has invested in pipe bending technology which allows it to produce heated towel rails such as the Ouse. Ouse features two very large, chunky rounds bars formed into a snake like shape and then laid over the top of each other to form this extremely eye catching design. The bars are equally spaced all the way down - with a large enough gap to hang towels with ease or dry clothes. The Galvanised Old Copper colour from Terma has a smooth texture, metal like finish, rough textured finish.
Filthy, horrible old steam engines (and a lot more) is probably what the owner of the sparkling white Ford said as his journey along the A5 near Atherstone was rudely interrupted by the passage of a light steam loco belching smoke. The loco was William Francis a rare Beyer-Peacock Garrett 0-4-4-0 (6841/1937) working from the main site of Baddesley Colliery to the exchange sidings with the West Coast line. Today the Garrett survives as part of the National Collection, the Ford is probably landfill. Possibly Autumn 1965, Peter Shosmith visited then.
