    Certainly does look lovely, Ring Haw's livery puts me in mind of 'Prince' on the ffestiniog in early preservation days!

    Lovely pics, there are some great views a mile or so either side of Weybourne if you know where to look, although vegetation growth on Kelling Heath has knackered a few great shots i remember from years ago.

    A bit disappointed I couldn't afford to go the NVR today but I had to get a fix somewhere
    I wasn't expecting to go today but my dad offered so I couldn't refuse!
    I gained some required haulage with J15 and the quads (well over due!) also one of the Kings X suburbans.
    A very nice blue day with a few clouds.

    Brilliant photo's mate. Do you know if they have fixed the ash pan on the J15 yet because last time I did a cleaning turn at the NNR there was a hole in the ash pan?

    Thanks but i'm not sure abut the Ashpan, although she sounded good yesterday.


    I would like to add how great the Quads are to ride as well, if you have a compartment to yourself (me and my dad yesterday) you can really appreciate the work involved.
    I do have a complaint to make, I saw two modern screws on a door not acceptable!! lol
