GCR Railways at Work Weekend – Sat 18th & Sun 19th April 2015

I quite like the look of this one...

They used to do a Gala in May each year called Coming Up With The Goods and it used to feature picking up and dropping off wagons in Quorn Yard. I used to like it but they stopped a couple of years ago. Maybe a fresh take on that theme.

I haven't been to the GCR in a long time, maybe I'm overdue a visit....

 

Anyone please say what DIRECTION locos will
be facing for the SUNDAY
TIA

as the turntable is broke it should hopefully remain that way

There's a hill?

 

Well, at least the weather looks promising on Saturday

 

the hall is doing the tpo so assume it will be too!not seen any tender first tpo's yet .

Well worth the trip, enjoyed both days on the trains and trackside. The 9F looks the business as Evening Star and the 8F still smelled of fresh paint/varnish as she steamed past in the sunshine on Saturday. Two images from the weekend...
