How to beat the snow – in 1963

I’m getting a little bored of the cold now but to have snow over Christmas was very nice indeed. Much merriment and tomfoolery. However, I was equally glad I didn’t have to go anywhere near an airport or train station as every single one of them seemed to be barred up with a chain on the door. However, a little dusting of snow didn’t stop them in 1963, when men were real men! They just all got a shovel and cleared the tracks, or failing that, got a little help from a juggernaut of a steam train, very cool indeed.
