Completely off track, locomotives all day at National Train Museum. Went on Shinkansen bullet train, only one outside Japan. This was a 1964 model & it was way ahead of anything we had. Attended a series of expert talks, Inc turntable, how a steam loco works and the museum collection store, which was great. That little working model is a segue (segway) loco that balances on one rail from 1925. That was topped off with an afternoon tea in a restored 19th century carriage - all lovely. York heaving this evening, the York races are on, loads of tottering young ladies in fancy frocks.
