    It doesn't happen very often but yesterday's annual post Christmas charter at the Foxfield coincided with the only sunny day in December. The same happened last year but then there was the added bonus of snow. Never mind it was still a blinder image.jpg

    Thanks for your kind comments, in those conditions you really can't go wrong. I've just got to spend a lot of computer time trawling through and processing the other images now.

    Nice pics John. Had considered attending but an 05:30 start didn't appeal on this occasion. :)

    with thanks to Richard Newton and the 3P20 Parcels group I had the pleasure of attending Foxfield on the 29th. Also a big thank you to all at the Foxfield Railway and @Foxfield_Rich @Glenalmond @Avonside1563

    a magnificent morning as enjoyed , my collection can be seen here https://www.flickr.com/photos/martincreese/albums/72157660607325184
