Yes we'll see John. I'd read about this when Vince posted the quizzy but for some reason I ignored it. I knew it was Wales, a spark of memory from my history O Level course way back in the 70's.

  You have to go back to the question, I have asked for the place where the 1804 locomotives first ideas and trials occurred in 1803- it is not Wales and it is not Cornwall.

  I must apologise though, it was not Victor that may have helped but Victorian67, so I hope that has not been too big a spanner in the works,

Could be York John, I looked at there too. There seems to be a big gap in the history during 1803, all my research seems to jump from 1802 to 1804 Undecided
