Sir Nigel Gresley departs from Guildford+ clan line

Post by andysleigh » Fri Dec 12, 2008 12:43 am

i went down to Guildford station to see LNER A4 Pacific 'Sir Nigel Gresley' hauling the Cathedrals Express, on its return journey to victoria.
I missed its forward journey during the day, as i was at collage.
I could have stayed home and watched it go past the end of my garden, but i thought it would be alot more exciting to see it de part from Guildford station.

Mmmm, Clan Line *drool*

A4s do nothing for me (nice photos though) but rebuilt Bullieds are gorgeous, and 28 is probably the prettiest of the lot.
