PGC Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I don't know what the loco is - the top lines of name plate read "In memory of Mark Timothy" and it's at Aylsham Station on the Bure Valley Railway, Norfolk, on 1st September 2007. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete 75C Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 A few shots taken by my son at the NNR last August during the Titfield Thunderbolt weekend. A nice shot of 1401, but strangely most people were more interested in the bar... 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Jackson Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Here's my contribution to this fantastic thread. It is a GSWR loco, built in 1879, and its steam ticket is about to run out this year, but in the meantime it's still as strong as the day it was built, being able to haul 6 coaches with ease. Please click on the photo for better quality. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGC Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Had to collect SWMBO from Euston yesterday and this 57 was in the station doing nothing. Photo taken on my 'phone rather than camera so quality not as good as it could be. Don't know what the equipment on the front end is for - any ideas? My guess is to haul failed Pendolinos or similar. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Dread Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) Heres mine a class 31 in the rail museum all interest this day was on the A4 cellebrations of which i allso got many photos but you could not move near them for a full view shot so i took this of this 31 I was in the museum on last Tuesday. My 8 year grand-daughter is very keen on science and after a talk on magnets which lead to the AWS system fitted to certain locomotives within the NRM, we knelt down to examine the underside of the front end of the class 31 you pictured. What we saw was accepted as quite OK but her question was, "What are the baking trays down each side of the loco for?" Dribble, dribble!

RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted August 19, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 19, 2013 Another snap from that LNER Gala on the NYMR - an excellent weekend! Pity about the chocolate and cream livery on the Mk One's - not suited to this locomotive or its early BR blue. Chaz That's what I love about modeling preserved lines, you can mix em up nicely. The choc and cream looks great with the blue! Was thinking about acquiring a short rake for Dunster and am now exited to find them behind 60007 on Goathland. Nice one Chaz!!
