    Well, there is quite an obvious candidate for this Gala currently residing at Southall, a large green Pacific very much involved with the End of BR Steam in 1968....

    Not sure if 45212 is returning North after the Christmas SD excursion. It will be good if she did come back to Ropley though....

    Absolute corker of a shot! Superb. Anyone know if the two Fives are rostered for use between Christmas and New Year? Don't have time to get down to the MHR at the moment.

    Christ on a bike @Andy Louch you were keen yesterday!

    I didn't surface until a lot later..........

    Still, I managed to get there in time to see both loco's into M4M circa 13:00! :)

    Some of my efforts from yesterday of the Satan's & the evening diner.

    Two photos from Saturday morning. I’ve put them in black and white for a change. I’m not sure what people think about black and white these days? But here they are.
