    Not too enticing? 2 black manors, 2 black 7f's, a black 4f, a black standard 4, (is 7714 black too) and a 6 coach rake of blood and custard at last? And (hopefully), all the right way round? Very enticing in my eyes.

    Hint. My second favourite is "paint it blood and custard".

    This looks like a great gala. The black pannier is a great draw for me; I never really got over the departure of 6412.

    Same weekend as Ffestiniog Victorian Weeekend gala - I may be greedy and do both!

    Witherslack Hall looked great in Black all those years ago on the GCR. In fact the "blackness" of this gala may make me favour it over the GCR's this time.

    Not particularly attracted by the blackness but 75014 is one I have never seen in action so that may attract me. On the other hand the Great Central looks enticing too. Decisions, decisions..........
     
  17. What happened to the S160.It was announced and then went quiet?

    It was not announced as coming to the gala. It's spending the whole of 2018 here.
     
  19. Thank you Ian, I must have mis-heard then but great news for 2018! Still a great gala in prospect anyway!
