Unusually we managed to find some real snow on our post Christmas steamy day trip to the GCR at Loughborough today. It's surprising how different conditions can be just 40 miles from home.

The GCR also provides a welcoming refreshment room with a real fire. The all day breakfast went down very well too.

The loco ready to retire for the evening. Having watched the crew struggling with the couplings in the freezing darkness I pondered whether to recommend DGs to them.

I was given a present of meal for two in their Saturday evening dining service for the Summer. Been a few years since we were at the GCR, looking forward to it...
