:::Thank you very much for your replies, Patrick & Robin. I will try to scan and upload a page or two. My father was a GWR employee on SVR from 1938, and this logbook covers the period 17/6/40 to 26/9/41. The records comprise 148 pages, with 2 columns of 22 lines per page - i.e. about 6000 sightings. It isn't purely SVR, it includes a few trips away and weekend trips back home to Crewe. I understand (from my father's diary) that his previous notebook was lost, but I have the others covering 1928 (age 13, living in Crewe) - 1964 (end of rail commuting when our local station closed at Churchdown, near Gloucester where he was working in the BR WR District Commercial Office). More later, when hopefully I will have learned how to do wiki editing. --[[User:Ianbutton1|Ianbutton1]] ([[User talk:Ianbutton1|talk]]) 18:37, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
