    It’s good for tomorrow, 70A shedplate and red nameplates just as it was in 1974. Quite an achievement for a 100% volunteer run single engine to be on the mainline for 50 years [ATTACH]

    I went on the Sunday and really enjoyed myself. It didn't seem to busy and I got a seat on all the trains. Really liked Fenchurch and No. 29, nice to see the little engines take centre stage. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

    It's good to hear positive feedback from some of those who travelled - the one's who really matter. As RTC have acknowledged that the GB relies on a large team; many of them are unsung heroes (and heroines). I'd like to mention one particular...
