    ' How green is their valley.' Made my Monday morning. Beats me why people jet abroad. We need to look at what we've got here and relate to what nature has provided plus the stirling efforts of the staff and volunteers of this amazing GW branch. Like to think of another word for magic, but can't.

      I completely agree, why waste time at the airport, when we have this on our doorstep. Great job my all the volunteers too. Magic is about right., 👍😀

      I heard it was air getting in through a poor seal on the smokebox doorand causing over heating in that area

    They have a remarkable amount of clout for their size. 7714 can manage seven unassisted on the SVR.

    7754 looks stunning
    Thought you were going to hit the woman on the head at one point departing Llangollen (No way she was moving out the way) !!!

    Glad you could share this moment of glory for 7754 with me. Obviously, you and Harry enjoyed the ride behind her and the J94 as much as I did. I couldn't do as much filming, because my camera battery was low. Bet you were happy to catch me on your video camera.

      Glad you enjoyed it Kelly. It was certainly great to see 7754 out again ( and to see you again lol). Harry noticed, you on the bus on your way home. He apologises for not waving in time.

    Great ride along Phil, thanks. I do believe that the 57xx class had more in number than all other modern classes together.

    • @AndreiTupolev
      @AndreiTupolev 10 месяцев назад

      863 versus 842 Black 5s, so the largest big four class (although there were more 08 shumters)
