Yesterday, I went for a (relatively) quiet steam up at John's Gunwalloe Railway (GwR). Here's several shots (plus a video to come later - of course)...

I LIKED the weathered LGB coaches - brave man!

I do think that the with LGB is a little ridiculous. My Grandad is mostly horrified by many of the things I have done to locos and rolling stock but if it suits your railway better and makes you happy then who cares if the price you can get for it second hand?!

Well........ it's debatable whether I like them much... They run suberbly and are very tough. Perhaps I should get a Countess or other W&LLR loco to haul them ;)

...and maybe paint them brown? :lol:

Why?? You must get travel sick far too easy in that case

(which isn't good with a railway on a shelf with a 3 or 4 foot drop to the ground below!

Don't you insult my shel- I mean railway! I, once all is sorted track wise, will get a ride on shot that will be not short of magnificant!
