Well that makes me feel very old.

I know of two other people who were there on that day, but I wonder how many others of us are still around.

 

Second visiting loco: Wimblebury from Foxfield running as Glendower.

A few images from yesterday.
Difficult line to photograph when the sun is out and loads of high viz clad cyclists on the path, plus the risk of being run over by one.
Great value at £10 for an all day old persons ticket and £2 per shuttle trip.
Some great exhaust from Whimblebury running as Glendower.
Only downside was I try to avoid being near schools with camera videos etc, so as it is Easter holidays somewhat surprised to find loads of young mums and dad's turn up around 15:30 whilst I am carrying around a video camera and an SLR around my neck. Received some very worrying looks. Plus the 3 hours the 80 mile journey home took.
