MILTON KEYNES DRIFTER - INTRODUCTION
What is it?
Haulages and observations during 1987 travelling from Milton Keynes Central to London Euston with occasional journeys to Chesterfield and
back and a few days out.
Why 1987?
I joined BR as a parcels clerk on the 6th January 1987 at London Euston lodging in Milton Keynes, travelling to Euston and back
each day. My last day was 31st December 1987 when I transferred to Stockport - this is the story.
Does it have a purpose?
Probably not - it is just a record of a year in my life in a bygone age and is an insight into railway workings that have now
disappeared and will never return.
Why is it called Milton Keynes Drifter?
I like the sound of it!
And for a whole year I drifted backwards and forwards between Milton Keynes and Euston!
