    I was lucky to have a ride in the Club car all the way from Keighley to Oxenhope - what a dream! It's a brilliant piece of work!

    I was the other guy in that coach if it was the Saturday night.

    I was in the club car on the Saturday night. I was in the orange jacket leaning out of the window. (I took the jacket off when we started so as not to ruin photos!)

    Yes I am an active volunteer
    Maybe 1300 could come over for a spell?

    Going into the outer limits a bit, I'd love to see the L&Y Radial tank or the Aspinall Saddle Tank running at the KWVR.

    OK, maybe I should go and lie down for a bit.

    Well you could always borrow the Aspinall class 27. It was running at the weekend on the East Lancs. I have to say in fine form. Though very similar in appearance to the class 25 of Barton Wright (L&Y 957) the Aspinall has that extra 3585 lbf of tractive effort and it does make a difference. I do agree it would be great to see a L&Y engine pulling the vintage set.

    Pictures and Video's of both L&Y957 and L&Y 1300 (LMS 12322) just uploaded to
