Wow... an amazing two days spent down in Dorset, nothing LNER related but some interesting railway exhibits;
GWR Scammell mechanical horse
Lovely British Railways Scammell Scarab
LMS Scammell
Was surprised to find on the back of this...
... a large Henschel shunter!
9F 92207 from the Shillingstone Railway Project - it had it's cylinders bored whilst on-site over the event!
'Battle of Britain' class 34051 'Winston Churchill' was also on a low loader and was hauled behind steam locomotives over the weekend - unfortunately was only there Thursday and Friday so didn't see it being hauled by steam at all.
Also on site in the Shillingstone Railway Project was the smokebox from Hunslet 'Chaloner'
