North Norfolk Steam Gala September

Yes. The 9F+ N2 were both hauled 'dead' to Weybourne yesterday by the 03 shunter, which promptly failed, leading to the unusual combination of Class 11 + Class 03 + N2 + 9F.

Just awaiting Sir Lamiel now, which should also face Holt.

Heres to a good weekend. You'll probably see me about on Friday and Saturday on the lineside

 

is it being dragged by a diesel from Norwich to Cromer

 

yes, not sure which way Lamiel will be facing? but im assuming it will be smokebox first over the crossing when it arrives in the morning

 

So I presume SL plus support coach Southall to Norwich (going to see at Harling rd station today) then diesel attaching at Norwich for a trip to cromer and a long wait.

 

Gala working timetables are now available to buy from Sheringham station

 

30777 on its way. Through Hitchin at 14:10 with a support coach and a maroon 37 in tow.

 

An hour late and I had to be home by 6 so missed it :-(

Anyway can't make it Saturday for gala, will be there tomorrow

 

It was 1:05 late through north Walsham. Had an extended stop at Ely, possibly due to oil not getting to the driving wheels. All seemed in good order when i saw it though. It will be facing Holt, as predicted

 

A quick stop at Weybourne to collect a timetable. There were literally running repairs as 44767 was pulled out of the shed

Look east have just told viewers to go to Sheringham at midnight

 

Two photo's of Sir Lamiel at Cromer Station Thursday evening.

 

Will be leaving for the Gala in about half an hour, looking forward to a great day

 

What a day! Had a cracking day today, the light was sensational, the crews were enthusiastic, the staff were friendly. Just a fantastic day out.

You never seem to disappoint at your gala's, I can't wait to get out again tomorrow with hopefully some of the same cracking light...

Keep up the great work
Simon.

 

I think you need to congratulate the crew at Webourne Black 5 serviceable for Gala today Friday

 

Fantastic, great to see the J15 on a goods train.

Post pics later. East midlands watercrane looking good at Holt.

I hope the investment of all these impressive engines has paid off.

 

Was there today, great day from the NNR crew, well done.
