[Photoplug] Ribble Steam Railway, Preston

65 photos of 36 locos taken last August are now online. Most of the locos are ex-industrials - steam, diesel, petrol and battery. But there is Ivatt 46441, magnificently restored NER engineers' saloon No 305, and LNWR Ramsbottom 0-4-0ST 1439 (on loan from the NRM).

Many thanks for sharing your pics - most interesting )

The RSR is one of those places I keep meaning to visit. While I'm certainly no 'spotter'/ 'number cruncher', there appears to be a wealth of interesting locos to look at.

Thanks again,

Whats with the fencing ?http://andrewsheritagetransport.fotopic.net/p63147704.html ruins the atmosphere/picture. Most museums don't have that sort of thing or is it just temporary?

 

Would assume to stop damage and grubby greasy hands. I'm sure other museums have something like this?
