tender Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Nice photos of Didcot George. We try and get down once a year but haven't managed so far this. Really nice just to be able to wonder around and we usually meet up with a friend that volunteers on one of the Loco rebuilds so we get to see whats going on in the workshops.
