Clashing on Thursday 13 February 7pm there is an RCTS talk at the Arts Centre 67 Westgate Road NE1 1SG

The Tyneside Electrics Part 2
"Bill Donald presents the second in his series “The Tyneside Electrics”. Now replaced by the Metro, and after a period of dmus, the electric trains on Tyneside had a character of their own which Bill brings out admirably. He also deals with power supply which in the early days was sometimes somewhat eccentric to say the least!"
