Had glorious sunny weather down South today. Driving the Bullock in the sun with a scale goods train, could it get any better?
Nice picture Steve, just shows what Preserved Railways are all about. Steam, near to full platforms, people enjoying themselves  I visited the NYMR just after SNG had been returned to service, so I was quite pleased to see it as when I first visited the NYMR it was the first engine I travelled behind

Sir Nigel Gresly supposedly used his chairs from his hous to work out how wide the walkway would have to be.
Apparently he lined them up and squeex through them
