    I went over to the first day of the KWVR's Diesel Gala on Thursday,
    Very well organised, many thanks to the organisers for getting such a large collection of locos, its a pity the Railways 20&37 are out of service.
    Very good for the railway as nearly every service was full to standing on some services, and this was a Thursday!! bodes well for a hot Saturday & Sunday, i will be back on Sunday as i got a 2 day members Rover ticket
    Bit of a arty photo taken at Keighley station!! just right position at right time

    Does anyone know what happened to 55009 Alycidon, as coming out of the tunnel just after leaving Haworth for Keighley it slowed down and stopped, and seemed reluctant to get going, it did but the same thing happened again at Oakworth, (just seen now Friday 08:00 that there is a fault on the Deltic),
