it was realised that at the GCR all we do every Sunday is shift lots of people to make money. To counter this we had a day where we let the family and friends of members have a play. I used this as a good excuse to get my Toby Tram out and properly drive it as I hadn't had a proper go since building it two years ago! People learned not to ask me to get a freight train out, my idea of a "nice easy to pull train" is everything I can find in the shed :lol: . I also learned that going as fast as I can on a freight train "to see how she behaves" made for a rough, but exciting ride!
I got 5000 in steam for her owner, and roared round on her a couple of times to make sure she wouldn't embarrass me and then spent the rest of the day letting other people drive Toby :roll: :lol:

all in all it was a good day, and didn't rain. It did that this week at work
