An 85-year-old man who volunteered at the Severn Valley Railway for three decades has returned to his old place of work for the first time in 10 years

Alfred pictured at the railway with his son, Colin, and his daughter-in-law, Susan.

Travelling from his home on the Wirral, Alfred would work on the railway and help to restore vintage train carriages. "My favourite part of the day was when I got to blow the whistle with my son and stepped up on the footplate, as this was something I used to do when I worked here. It was nice to be able to go back after so many years."With an enthusiasm for trains in his blood, Alfred's son, Colin, has followed in his father's footsteps, having now worked and volunteered on the Severn Valley Railway for 40 years.
