  5. thegrimeater liked 5944's post in the thread Tornado.

    He also annoyed a lot of people at Wensleydale last night by tweeting pictures of a freshly repainted 37250, that the owners were trying to keep quiet until they could announce it themselves.

    More on the AGM / members day. Note that although this is billed as a "members day", there is no reason why non-members should;t visit and enjoy what is on offer; only the AGM constitutes formal BRPS Members' business. Of course, you may choose...

  8. Paul42 liked The Gricing Owl's post in the thread KESR 50th Anniversary Gala: 1st - 2nd June 2024.

  15. Johnb replied to the thread 6880 Betton Grange.
