    That ranks with and may even be better than the Laira open day line up of Westerns.

    That was 5 of the Thousands , 1 800 and 1 7000, back in 1991, without sounding like a willy waving contest, Fridays event was 4 Thousands, both 800’s and 2 7000’s.
    I’d say Fridays event was one loco up from Laira ‘91.
    Looking at the photos from Friday and last week’s event really has rekindled my love of hydraulic traction, an absolutely massive hats off to all those who made it happen.

    Some of us knew when the 1048 touched down that it was on the cards.
