    Bold and bright LMS lettering and numbers, proved that black doesn't have to be BR boring...No 20 looked great on Fridays vintage set (before the L&Y Saloon failed)...and No 32's transformation was a treat (thanks to those responsible). Despite...

    Some footage of Saturday's proceedings, sadly couldn't stick around for the Night Mail runs in the evening, but had a wonderful day nevertheless, particularly with a whole host of LMS liveried locos together! [MEDIA]

    Seems to be a bit of a conflict of information somewhere - 34059 is rostered on the A Set, and it’s either 80151 or 32424 for the B Set. 65 is rostered for the Goods on Saturday and GAL on Sunday.

  6. Ben Jenden liked SECR 65's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

    The suggestion I have from a source close to the heart of the railway is that there has been a change of engine so it's now 34059 (A) and 80151 (B). If I remember correctly it used to be 80151 and 32424. Beachy Head is going to Didcot the...

    Nice, not regular visitors to Bury in steam days, Springs Branch had a few so they turned up occasionally on the Knowsley Street line. Most unusually one turned up one Saturday in August 1964 on a Wigan - Scarborough holiday train which we caught...
