    Superb day at the GWSR yesterday for my photo charter with 4270 and the GWSR's rather nice goods rake . Nice to meet @flying scotsman123 and put a face to the name

    Have to say a massive thank you to everyone involved from the GWSR for being so helpful, welcoming and just making it a brilliant day and as always to everyone who supports these events

    Hard to believe 4270 is on ten years (ish) running . Sounds fantastic , looks great

    It really was a brilliant day, massive thank you to you Martin for organising it, makes all our effort on the wagons worthwhile. Definitely one of the best days I've had on the railway, I know some of my colleagues said the same, so the sooner you come back the better frankly! :) Although I was nominally on duty, I managed to join the gallery and get some photos of my own too:
