Test car 2 is due to run on Saturday as it has passed its "Fitness to Run" examination.
Another interesting weekend at the GCR as the Quorn Wagon and Wagon group are show casing their activities and varied goods rolling stock. Two...
Having read this carefully I agree....However I think we will have to go through the stage of having several disjointed sections of the L & B,...

Here is the yellow stripe on 45675 Hardy. Taken at Leeds shed in 1967 (?).[ATTACH]
I too missed the regular updates on here, but they are still happening on the QW&W website.
Looking forward to the QW&W Weekend!
