All on an Area C, May 86 “thanks to the “Mad Axeman”
The magic of an “Area C”, non stop Crompton action, tight pluses at Fareham and Soton that always made. Mk I stock, no bashing hordes, assorted overnight moves, thrashing over Salisbury plain or dossing on the 0550 all shacks ex Pompey, happy days indeed!
