Thursday at Tanfield Railway

Jan Roos from the Netherlands visited TR because we use AD track fastenings .....
(Jan is pleased with AD fittings which I gave him; AD = Arthur Dean, NER engineer)

..... Jan also enthused over our use of Mills clips, and has
written a book about rail to sleeper fastenings 
(See also Rail fastening systems on Wikipedia)

(Arthur Dean from The Railway - British Track Since 1804 by Andrew Dow, 2014)
