‘The Stratford Upon Avon & Midland Junction Railway’ (or S.M.J.) was a small independent railway company which ran a line across the empty, untouched centre of England. It visited the counties of Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and a little of Buckinghamshire, only existing as the SMJ from 1909 to 1923. In 1923 the S.M.J.became a minor arm of the London Midland and Scottish (L.M.S.), then in 1948 'British Railways' 

Gone but not forgotten: "the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth"

Add me to the list of recipients of this unusual email. This is the second message from him this year and the second time I've deleted it! An unknown, unsolicited message that, unless more information is forthcoming, I will continue to ignore them.

Seems that I am not the only one, thanks guys, delete key for me.

Delete key for me too.. is he a member?

He has a member profile but it is set to private. That's how he is adding comments on your profile page. You can change your own settings to allow you to moderate posts before they appear publicly. However can the group admin check him out and if necessary delete him.

Thanks.
