Steam World

COMMENT

I was brought up with a start the other week when I realised that it’s now six years since I took over the regulator of Steam World, the first editor not to remember steam in BR days. Seventy-five issues on, it’s time for a crew change on the footplate as I hand over to Chris Leigh and head for pastures new.

With the plans Nigel and Clive have been working on over the past months, I can’t wait to develops, and I look forward to it very much, this time as a regular reader. I know that all readers and contributors will give Chris a very warm welcome on his return to the regulator.
