Well, the weather was alright. Sorry about the quality of the photos, they were taken on my phone camera, but the good news for you is that there will be NO video!

(shame, just fitted the chuffer to my Linda and it sounded awesome!).

Great pics of a very nice looking line

Is the long blue diesel one of those from classic trains which come from India?

Brilliant pics! Love linda, russell and the countess of course. I think the chuffers are particularly reminiscent of the prototype so no doubt sounds great

No, scratch built thing based on some West Clare diesel.

Some really nice photo's there! I particularly like the ones taken around the loco shed!

Nice to see Mandie (aka "Zach") stretching her legs
