    I think enough has been said about the weekend by now, we had three days of boiling in trains and generally enjoyed it all. I think it was over ambitious but had it come off everyone would have been full of praise for one of the best ever galas....

    Hence why I said to wait for any possible confirmation.

    I also missed the Spit on Saturday, but grabbed a few mobile phone shots of the DC3 flypast on Sunday, nicely timed to coincide with Manston's departure. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

    I think I was in the same compartment, it certainly had a non-opening window. IIRC the announcement was that we would be held for 45 minutes while Manston came down - we had already been held for the Railcar which we were told would go straight...

    It might be worth waiting for someone on here from the GWSR to confirm, but the latest issue of Steam Railway Magazine has arrived today and suggests that 45110 will be staying at the GWSR for 12 months.

    I was on the Caley and heard someone say that the Grange had run a hot box, but clearly wasn't the case. I was in a compartment behind it, which unfortunately had a broken top light so wouldn't open, and the corridor on it was quite full, but...

    Perfect summary Alex, but got to pick out this bit as it really sums things up. The volunteer kindly dashing out to grab a takeaway for us all to fuel the planning was also very much a key part in all this!! At times the issues were coming so...

    You may not have many photos but the ones you have taken are excellent and really capture the atmosphere of the event. A huge thank you to you and all the team for keeping the event running. As I said before, I found it very enjoyable despite...

    Well, what can I say? Epically challenging I think best sums it up. Over the course of the weekend, we had several heat-related medical emergencies including one member of crew who, whilst doing ok, is still not at all well, and a missing...

    My video filmed across Saturday-Sunday-Monday. Huge thanks to all involved in organising the event, and then dealing with all the extreme events that followed. We travelled on Saturday and Sunday, having our youngest who is 19 months old we had...

    Would like to add to the above and say well done to the GWSR gala team for getting a solid timetable in place for today, and for all your efforts this weekend. Yes, as a punter, the delays and lack of communication could sometimes be frustrating....

    I think given the heat, a crew member falling seriously ill yesterday, and the issues the GWSR faced, the emergency timetable was by far the right cause of action. The Caley at least ran today, and the Coffee Pot did venture out a bit in the...
