    Would I be correct in saying everything will face Rawtenstall with the exception of 1969?

    Pictures have appeared on Facebook showing Gothenburg (MSC 32) repainted in grey for this event. Does anyone know whether she will keep this livery after the gala?

    Some footage of Saturday's proceedings, sadly couldn't stick around for the Night Mail runs in the evening, but had a wonderful day nevertheless, particularly with a whole host of LMS liveried locos together!

    Bold and bright LMS lettering and numbers, proved that black doesn't have to be BR boring...No 20 looked great on Fridays vintage set (before the L&Y Saloon failed)...and No 32's transformation was a treat (thanks to those responsible). Despite the gloom, here's my effort at a record of a very long and enjoyable weekend.
