had ghost trains.

    2. Thank you thank you :-) I'll check through these over the next couple of days. I think Waltzers part two in incorporated in part 1, the dodgems and the rollercoaster were certainly in the fairground series and I looked at them today but decided they weren't set in Barry. If I include roxette I would have to admit it was autobiographical :) Ill look at the others :-)
