    Hi,
    I paid a visit to the GCR on Sat. The two tanks were double headed on the 4.45 departure from Loughborough.
    To see my efforts go to http://rickeborallphotography.fotopic.net/

    It was also good to see progress on Boscastle down in the shed. The frames are jacked up at the moment. All the wheel
    sets and bogies are outside ready for cleaning! I was told the next big job is the GWR Hall. The black 5 still awaits its boiler
    from Tyseley. Anyone know whats going on with it?
