GWR Castles in the 50's & 60's & into preservation

Hi All

I have added a large collection of new GWR Castles, majority taken around Bristol in the 1950s, plus some preserved photos of GWR Castles

Thank you for those, brought back many happy memories of my youth, especially those taken at Reading. If it helps, picture 27 of 5017 was taken at platform 4 at Reading.
Love to see this loco running like this again, probably cleaner. It was actually withdrawn from Reading & I had the privilege of a footplate ride on it at Reading Station in October 1963.
