Peter Hadfield

As a young boy growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, Peter Hadfield was enthralled by a machine that can only be described as being almost a living thing; the steam engine. He was fortunate to see them at a time when steam still ruled and the engines were kept in good condition, as they handled the expresses, local passenger and freight traffic around the town.
