AA train drivers: ask JOHN FOX who returns the shopping trolley's at TESCO in Heanor, he's always glad to talk about the GOOD old American Adventure days. Mention to him COLIN from Kilburn, JIM from Ilkeston, and Keith from Kirk Hallam.
Ask John for a demonstration of his train sounds, which he used to do, when Granada would not pay to have the tape deck effects repaired each season. He used to go without a shave before going to work there, so he could rub the microphone on his stubble for the steam sounds!
Oh and by the way, after you have delayed him, do the right thing, and give him a push with a few trolley's that he's now behind with...............

It's amazing what poeple want to know!

Ice

If you're still reading this, I may have found the answer.

Have a look at this site, which gives details of the miniature railway at Britannia Park, and then later at the American Adventure (they were totally different). There will be a link from the main website soon.
