    You get Nice & shiny refurbs, not so shiny been in traffic refurbs, and those in need of refurbs.......... most authentic in the rake. ;)

    I'm glad the Bulleids are seemingly pulling in the crowds for the line too. :) GWSR that is!

    My video from Saturday - brilliant day out, I'm just gutted I couldn't get back up to the GWSR today or tomorrow :(

    34092 is rather impressive... can it make a slight detour via the MHR please on it's way back to Keighley?! :)

    My random of the day, if Thomas the Tank engine was real, it would of been really awkward when Wadebridge and P&O met today. It would have been like meeting a friend who's now dating your former long term ex partner.

    I really should go to sleep lol 19 hour days don't agree with me.

    At least ours doesn't have green mould growing on it. :p I said pretty good as I didn't like to boast. :) There's one wagon which really needs some attention, and that's the brewery wagon; apparantly the brewery on Winchcombe platform over te gala have offered to sponsor it as well!

    HaHa, I prefer dirty wagons as they far more realistic ;-) Great news about that brewery wagon if it comes off ... wonder if they will supply beer as well to go inside it :)

    Had a really good day at the gala on Saturday. The trains I travelled on and saw were all pretty full - it was hard to find a seat behind Wadebridge and Wells!

    Here are a few photos from the day. Excellent event.
