Excellent piccies - well done. Looks like 44767 was struggling to keep her feet a bit...

Well done Trev
Well up to standard. I particularly want photos of the Q6 which I've never seen working (in preservation). I'll get to the NYMR one day - and probably find it out of service

Hi BB
Yes, it was going rather slow, but it is a good gradient.
Hi Ian,
That seems the perfect excuse you need to come up here.

Hi Trev
I understand there is planned a Railfest, or some other name, for York next year. I Dont know the dates but my usual thing for such events is to attend the photographers preview. I certainly won't attend the event proper.
Plan is to attend NYMR at the same time. How that fits in with the plans of SWMBO remains to be seen. I haven't mentioned it yet - the later I mention it the less chance there is she will be able to fit her shifts around it.
Ian
Probably find the Q6 out of service!!

Hi Ian,
It is the 2nd-10th June - a huge celebration of Britain's Railways.
Now you have no excuse not to sort things out in plenty of time.

Thanks Trev
However I will only attend if there is the usual 'Photographers Preview', I can't put up with the 'World and his Wife and Kids'. Yes, I'm a misery!!
Actually, the wife is less of a problem than the boss. I cannot book the time until next years holiday list is out, (I also want 3rd July for the P&O Parade of Ships in Southampton) and trying to book 'odd' days is a hell of a problem. Weeks fine,days problem. I might have to go to the rediculous lengths of booking as weeks and then cancelling the days I don't want.
Roll on Feb 2013 when I become an OAP
