Careful, you might inadvertently start the biggest thread this forum's ever seen!

Was trying to think whether that feels clumsy or inspired, but I suspect the former. Presumably the date of the gala has been in the calendar from early in the year, so you'd have thought that the three organisations might have co-ordinated so as...

Sadly I had come to think that might happen a few weeks ago. It's fair to say I think that this year has not gone to plan for NELPG but hopefully the worst is now behind them. Thanks for confirming.

There were posts recently that explained the personal circumstances behind my decision to stand down. Some of my fiercest critics on here expressed their sympathy which was very much appreciated.

There is no NELPG weekend .2392 only loco that would be available. D6700 once featured at a steam gala when 60163 arrived in steam and was duly failed by the shed on arrival .

Not quite true, but you'd be forgiven for missing it seeing as we haven't formally announced it yet - Andrew Barclay no.2315 'Lady Ingrid' is the final locomotive for the lineup, subject to agreement of contract. 'Lady Ingrid' is freshly...

silversteellady liked LittleRedTrain's post in the thread Didcot Railway Centre Autumn Steam Gala 11-13 September.
An excellent day despite the rain on Sunday. Sadly I think the weather must have put quite a few people off, as it didn't feel very busy. Hopefully it was still a commercial success. 229 was an excellent choice as a visitor, a good size for the...
