I think it's start of what could be quite interesting trend of railways and Comic Cons/Pop Culture crossing over. The Bluebell have really started to get on board with it anyway. They did a Comic Event last year with Peter Davison as the main...

Saturday saw me and a mate make the long trek for our first ever Bluebell gala. We were very impressed. Great railway, friendly staff and a cracking selection of locos, with plenty of noise. Wonderful selection of rolling stock too. The gala ran...

There was only one photo I really wanted today, and that was 75069+73082 on the 14.00 ex S Park. In the end my short visit got me three photos. It was a close run thing getting there in time and at the right location for the 14.00 SP. I was...
