    Paid my first visit to Chasewater since the early 1970s. Seemed quite busy with lots of families out for a ride.
    £5.50 for a day rover was a bargain IMO.
    A couple of shots from the day.

    Just goes to show that you don't necessarily need a big apple green loco to bring out the crowds. :)
    Was very pleased to see the Kerr Stuart in action. Last saw that standing derelict at Fairfield Maybey's Works in Chepstow many moons ago.
