    Pity the Welsh gala theme resulted in the missed opportunity to recreate the famed Wansbeck Piper railtour on its fiftieth anniversary. Coupled tender to tender this pair could easily have doubled for the pair of Ivatt Class 4s used on that 1st Oct 1966 tour which resulted in some memorable photographs. But hey - you cannot recreate everything I guess.

    A brilliant gala, yet again the folks at the NYMR failed to disappoint and even provided sunshinse during most of the mornings on Friday and Saturday and even into the afternoons. Seeing two of the visitors on the early morning freight charters was also superb. Congratulations to all involved, and I must thank the staff who were at all times, most welcoming and warm.

    Just a few shots from the first two days:

    In superb lighting too. Well, it is at Grosmont.

    76084 just off shed for long Whitby which I didn't expect. Don't suppose the seals that were there last night to see the train will still be there!!

    And may be on back (?) of 13:30 Pickering after giving up on it being on 12:30 (that left 12:55 with just 6046).

    Quite fun here today with the unpredictable happening.

    Good day on Saturday, pity about 2807 but 61264 a good alternative. Mixed luck with the sunshine, a bit hit and miss. Six shots, thanks to all for the organisation and wonderful show. P1010988.JPG P1010990.JPG P1010994.JPG P1010996.JPG P1010999.JPG P1020003.JPG
