    Travelled yesterday and it was good to see packed trains. Well done for an excellent gala.
    For those around Keighley station in the afternoon, did the owner of the white BMW turn up?

    Really enjoyed the visit on Saturday, great runs with the K4, 1054/43924, 90733 and star of the show 5820 :):cool:

    Trains were busy all day with queue half way up the ramp still at 11:00, announcements (not involving the BMW - which had gone by mid/late afternoon!) were asking for patience due to the unprecedented number of people paying by card and asking for two day tickets.

    Great line, locos working hard, roll on the next gala.
