What an amazing day it has been with a huge display of steam, diesel and electric spanning two centuries. My heartiest congratulations to all who have contributed to this event.
Highlights were 3440 "City of Truro" working all day on the demonstration track, the Penydarren replica (you have to see it in action!), real BR steam shed atmosphere (smokin'), D9009 and 56006 both restored to original condition, APT-E looking magnificent and the brand new 171 4-car Turbostar in SR livery.
I have created a new Fotopic gallery at:
The atmosphere was superb, with none of the grumpy kettle photographers who have marred some past open days. With only one or two exceptions everything was well displayed and accessable.
If you're planning to go, you may not want to view these pictures just yet...
