Ok, first, apologies if these are in the wrong section.

These are a few photographs from the Steam Gala at Locomotion in Shildon







and a short video

Perhaps "Other Railway" might be more appropriate, but one of the locomotives and the location are both LNER!

So "Oliver Cromwell" and Furness No. 20 were the only engines in steam? One day they'll need to restore No. 3 "Old Coppernob" at York (if they dare) and have the two Furness locos in steam together! Somehow I doubt it will happen.

all the engines pictured were in steam. there was another that was actually giving rides called PLANET but i couldnt get anywhere near it it to get a photo unfortunately.

I am still hoping they will get the Sans Pareil replica repaired and operational again.
