Thanks to Martin for organising another excellent day, always a pleasure working one of these, especially when I can manage an escape to the gallery to see all our hard work roll past a few times :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

3ABescot liked neildimmer's post in the thread 60019 Bittern.
I think with the amount of postings on here not to do with Bittern we could do with a new thread just for LSL locos

3ABescot liked Adam Tandy's post in the thread 60019 Bittern.

3ABescot liked 5944's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
That's not hilarious. That's shameful and embarrassing. Constantly begging for money then paying to enter a pointless award ceremony. That's appalling and willy waving of the highest order.

3ABescot liked Pete Thornhill's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
This is hilarious, @60044 these awards don’t have nominations, this is an awards ceremony which is a big scam. No one nominates anyone, the organisation pays for entry. I had one ring me for my business, I told them no thanks, clearly the NYMR...
