A nostalgic shot and an atmosphere I have not experienced since the sixties. I miss the smells of a working shed. ;-)

I'm a fireman at the GCR so to a certain extent I have experienced steam on shed atmosphere but it's true, to recreate the feel, look & smell of Patricroft in 1968 is not really possible!
