M&GN 50 - Anniversary Gala on the NNR

Leave WEYBOURNE STATION and head south for about 50 yards over rail bridge. Turn right along footpath running parallel to line to Holt. Follow path up to Kelling Heath halt and hen about 300 yards beyond station path divides at bottom of steep hill. Take a right up steep path. Photo location is at top of incline. About 10 - 15 minutes from station. Windpump crossing is another 5 minutes further on.
Enjoy. =P~

 

Most appreciated. May now come on sunday as the weather looks better!

 

#-o Oh dear Matt, it's fantastic weather today.

 

No, it was 'fantastic weather' for about thirty minutes - still got three trains in the sun during that time so can't complain too loudly

 

What station is this one?

Corpusty - I took it on the Society coach tour this morning. This trip was one of the best £8's I've ever spent. Adrian Vaughan is a fountain of M&GN knowledge!

 

thanks, I didn't realise the station still existed.

 

Did you or anyone else take any photos of the ex Grt Yarmouth d/d car 66 that was there only on Sunday. If so I would be very pleased to see them.

I bought this bus from Jack Mulley of Ixworth way back, and it was this vehicle that in due course that started me in the coach business. Glad to see that she has a secure home at Carlton Colville.

T.I.A.

 

The plans submitted for the carriage cottage at Holt are available on the NNDC website here;

For some reason this part of the councils website has a lot of down time so you might need to try it later on if it doesn't work.

That should give you most of the information required other than whos funding it.

 

What a day yesterday. Such incredible sunshine from dawn through to about 14.00. Made the B1 and Quads look superb

Very interesting, should be a great addition to the site.

 

Passing trains at Weybourne. B1 and Quads run into headshunt as 4F arrives from Sheringham.

You have no idea how much I hate you at the minute Steve!

 

Must be the "best shot" of the gala !

I have to say the video by Peter Bogis on youtube is a smasher, you must watch!

I don't know about Dave being jealous, but Wowww! They really are some of the best shots from the whole gala i've seen, the light is cracking, wish i'd been there ](*,) Great stuff!

 

I've gotta earn money somehow - Forget all that crap i said about music being the best industry to be in - its awful

Ironically, i took an almost identical shot later in the day with one minor bright yellow difference..





As a preview

 

Ohhh, we really did choose the wrong weekend! *Slaps himself!*

Sensational photos Dave! Out of this world

 

What a gala!! \/

I worked all 5 days of it and really enjoyed it all!

Thanks to those who attended and filled up our trains, hope you enjoyed it too!
