TRIPS AND BOBS ............................... SPREAD THE WORD Here’s Jo McQueen having a very viva moment with her copy of Viva Brighton at Lindas Viva Panjim restaurant, in the Goan state capital (renamed Panaji in the 1960s). Inspired by Brighton’s pin-hole camera-wielding artist Nick Sayers, who took his Cycle the Solar System bike ride project to a science festival in the Indian city in 2017, Jo spent a few days intrepidly exploring the erstwhile capital of Portuguese India by bike. And here’s Frances Tobin, fresh off the train from Bangalore and ready to explore Mysore. The city is noted for its heritage architecture, but that’s not the Mysore Palace behind her; it’s a mural in the very colourful underpass at Mysore railway station. Keep taking us with you and keep spreading the word. Send your photographs and a few words about you and your trip to hello@vivamagazines.com ON THE BUSES #47: BERNARD HOLDEN ROUTE 5 “I have steam in my blood,” said fourth-generation railwayman Bernard Holden, reflecting on his life on the railways. He was born in March 1908, in the station house at Barcombe, where his father was the station master. After his schooling at Steyning Grammar School, Bernard joined the Southern Railway as a clerk in 1925, and later moved to London on the outbreak of war. There he supervised the evacuation of children, rerouted rail services through the Blitz-ravaged city, and saw trains full of soldiers returning from Dunkirk. In June 1941 he reported to Longmore Military Railway and was posted to Bengal where he spent much of the war operating railways in northern India, carrying troops and supplies to the front in Burma. He joined the newly nationalised British Railways in 1948 and remained there until his retirement in 1972. You might think that was enough trains for one lifetime, but Bernard ran another railway in his spare time. In 1960, he and a group of fellow railway enthusiasts established the Bluebell Railway, reopening the recently-closed line between Horsted Keynes and Sheffield Park. Starting as the signalling engineer, Bernard went on to become President of the steam-operated passenger railway and was given an MBE in 1992 for services to railway preservation. Today the Bluebell Railway’s collection of historic locomotives, carriages and wagons run on a 22-mile return trip between Sheffield Park and East Grinstead. Bernard died in Ditchling in 2012, aged 104. His funeral cortège included a nine-mile ride on the Bluebell Railway. Illustration by Joda (@joda_art) ....10....
