Should you visit the GCR, I can sometimes be found working as Platform Staff at Loughborough Central.

Will do, re photos. We are … expecting… some interesting, famous loco’s… soon… :astonished:

Now that sounds interesting !
it would be good to meet up, your duties permitting of course, probably be after Easter :+1:

The 2 locos that I am thinking of, are both Pacifics. One is already at the GCR, I believe and is expected to emerge from its overhaul, at some point soon. The other is… nearby.

I will get down to the line Ian, that’s a promise, there’s quite a lot on the line that I want to see, and hopefully we can arrange a meet-up while down on the line.

Leaving California never easy…

Off to London for my cousins’ 50th birthday (I remember when they were born! Cripes), and the memorial service of a good friend and mentor who died last year in a cycling accident.

So, will be mixed emotions, but hopefully not only one event will be celebratory.

Yes well spotted I was expecting someone to ask is that Thailand.

Spin around the other way and take a picture. That would answer their question! I think you managed to nicely block out Dungeness power station too.

Thanks for the pictures from Zeeland, for some reason I have only been on vacation in Noord-Holland. The south looks nice, too.
