Michael Bailey (1951-2018).
Michael Bailey and I first met at Prince Henry's Grammar School, Evesham, Worcestershire. A common interest in railways perhaps made it inevitable that we became friends, a friendship that has carried on beyond school. (Michael Bailey was best-man at my wedding). Virtually all the photos were taken on Worcester Locomotive Society 'shed-bashing' trips.
