Severn Valley Railway Autumn Diesel Bash 28th September- 1st October 2023

That’s fair enough mate, I won’t comment any more.

 

Just out of interest @D1039 where on earth would we have fitted D7017/18 in?

That ranks with and may even be better than the Laira open day line up of Westerns.

It’s pretty special isn’t it?

 

There's those lines to the left on the carriage shed line up, they could have parked them there :-D

 

That was 5 of the Thousands , 1 800 and 1 7000, back in 1991, without sounding like a willy waving contest, Fridays event was 4 Thousands, both 800’s and 2 7000’s.
I’d say Fridays event was one loco up from Laira ‘91.
Looking at the photos from Friday and last week’s event really has rekindled my love of hydraulic traction, an absolutely massive hats off to all those who made it happen.

 

No big surprises there
@Southernman99 some of us are more than capable of reading between the lines

 

Some of us knew when the 1048 touched down that it was on the cards.
