Yes it is a pps file - whatever that is . I had to go to free cloud convert to see it.

Maybe someone who knows more about computers can sort it to a more common file.

Fabulous photos and great music.

Just found out pps is a power point file so if you do not have Microsoft Power Point (a part of Office) it will have to be converted to ppt or some other format. I found several free converter sites so will try to convert to something more common and relist it.

It is powerpoint, but hasn't been posted as such. Hence, despite it being something which I will appreciate, I can't see it.
Still, in the Christmas spirit, have three famous Christmas songs played on 'play-me' pianos at London railway stations.
I have sent these to railway groups already.

In earlier years, I have posted assorted train, tram and aeroplanes rides taken on 25.12. I haven't prepared one of a trolleybus ride (Beijing, 1993) or of a bus ride (Peru, 1984). I don't get many truck rides overseas at all, let alone on Christmas Day. I was rescued by a rubbish truck in Turkey one year when stranded in a minor location.

Merry Christmas,
Roderick

The link is trying to open in a gmail account so unless we have access to your email account(userid and password) we aren't going to find the .pps file.

If you want to forward the file to forum@hcvc.com.au I will have a look at at it and see if I can make it available on here.

I picked your deliberate error where you slipped an extra "v" into the email address and it bounced. you should have the file now.

Lang,

What error, I don't see an error, I don't make mistakes. :)

The file is 6.9mb which s a big download so I went looking and found a copy on the tube.

Thanks Terry for the salvage, and thanks Lang for the original thought.
AFAIK I have travelled over all of the ones which aren't USA, and some of the ones which are.
'Amazing grace' stirs, as ever. When I was in national service, and attended a funeral for one of our sergeants, it was played as a bagpipe solo.
2019 simply raced away; and I guess that 2020 will be just as fast.
I hope to catch up with people aboard 'Haulin the Hume'.
