I wonder where Matt got the idea for his T-shirt...?

WARNING! Large No. Of Photo's!

I've tried to capture every loco present today, apologies for any I've missed (or the shot was so poor I haven't used it!)

Now, who thought Pecketts were small?

"A Study In Perspective"

Oops!

It did rain late in the afternoon, but I was expecting it - the cows I bought from the Members Stall were laying down!

Meanwhile, over on the 12" to the Ft...

and finally, one for Shane.............

Now, watch out for the video from Lens lense (one of the T.I.T.S), who incidentally set up on an ants nest!

He's currently covered in calamine lotion and recovering from the attack by the incensed insects and has left the editing to me

Great weekend - a big thanks to everyone who took part and an especial thanks to Tony (Maxnod) and the rest of the "crew" for the extra effort they put in to make it happen!

Oh excellent, I think the real killer bunny will have to visit Butterly now, at the moment he's AWOL in Scotland! Cracking selection of pics, and great number of locos too

I have to say it's not just me, many people work together to make it happen.....Glenis, Norman, Anne, Keith, David, Tom, Mike(the security guard) Atropos, Back2Bay6, John Prescott, Tony Le Grys.
Oh, and not forgetting the MRT who allow us to play!!!!
I just hope everybody enjoyed themselves!

And bloody good pics by Greg and Brian. Thanks, chaps!

We have a couple who come down from Darlington every year, approximately 120 miles and they stay in the Travelodge a mile and a half away from us.
So, anything is possible!

Or, make a long weekend of it and go and see the National Tramway Museum at nearby Crich, visit Chatsworth House, Peak Rail, Ecclesbourne Valley Railway, Denby Pottery, Cromford Mill, Heage Windmill, the possibilities are endless!!

And no, I don't work for the local Tourist Board, I just love (and am proud of) Derbyshire. (don't like Derby much, though, nowadays).

Mine was a three hour journey of just over a hundred miles, but was well worth it. I'll look forward to next now.
