    Thought it was time for a thread on this given the first guest has been revealed - 90733 from the KWVR. Sounds good to me!

    Agreed, a very good start and let's hope there's plenty to celebrate with for the 50th anniversary (of the formation of the society) next year.

    Excellent. I missed the only previous time that it's come south (GCR several years ago).

    Oh that's a pretty superb starting point. A spectacular-looking engine that I've yet to see in action. Will book accommodation and a Friday ticket pretty swiftly.

    I like it. I wasn't expecting that. I don't suppose 92214 will still be there. Will it?

    Nope. 92214 leaves us pretty quickly in the new year. I think she is only with us for 6 -7 weeks.

    I tell you what. I had a great day on the SVR 2 Saturdays ago. It might have been the best photographic weather I've ever seen and with 6 engines in steam and a DMU out it was like a gala. The 9F didn't half look good.

    I'm afraid I'm not very savvy with technology. I don't know how I'd get my photos on here. I met you behind 1450 in the October gala last year. She was doing the full 25mph down Eardington bank, I seem to remember!

    Ahh that was you! Did enjoy that, mind you dont think I've had a bad day at the SVR. I do have a thing for 14xx tank. They do look a bit old but blow me they can't half shift. Don't worry about it Macko's pics have shown me what I love about my favorite 16 miles of non NR track! :)

    The latest SVR news says that 34027 is hoped to be returned to service february/march so with a fair wind it should be in availability for the spring gala. On twitter, SVR Engineering reports that 34027's bolier passed its hydraulic insurance exam today.
