tx Nige, tracked him down. Not too much info on the web to find easily. I didn't know this has been there since 1999. To be honest, it would be better in a more central location. Unless you travel to/from Flint by train you are very unlikely to ever see this and it is a great piece of work.

This looks interesting...
