    The modern incarnation of the Great Central Railway mounted a mini gala on the first weekend of September to commemorate the 5oth anniversary of the closure of the route to through traffic. The event featured diesel loco no. D5185 and five members of the GCR's steam fleet, with nos. 45305 and 48624 renumbered as long-lost classmates nos. 44984 and 48095 respectively.

    A selection of my images from the second day of the event (with much more clement weather than Saturday) can now be seen on my Zenfolio website at: - http://mickrogers.zenfolio.com/p315151376

    Thanks to all at the GCR for their excellent celebration!

    Cheers,
