Hi Fifty A,
I too had a great time at the first event and paid the £15 to get in before the crowds. It was worth every penny. As a matter of interest Barrow Hill will be putting on a show with 4 of the A4's in February 14. That should be a good event, to see them in an original shed environment. Anyway all the best and enjoy Cheers Phil |
Thanks for the reminder I must try to get there as I missed the last one. Have a definite plan to get to Shildon in February.
Best wishes, John H-T. |
I Hope to be there on 30th with a grandson who now likes railways, and especially steam. This will also be his first ride on a train, and he's just turned 10.

The streaks (four of them) now look likely to be at the Barrow Hill roundhouse in February. Not quite sure which yet but certainly one of the visitors will be there.
Hope so Cheers Phil |
A chap I know from my Kings Cross days was at York on Sat 26th October. He along with other KX firemen went as guests of the NRM and they spoke to the public about their experiences firing A4s on BR.

Didn't get there today as hoped, but have received some cracking photo's from a mate who went on Monday. Now I intend going on Saturday.

Good Link
Link shows several utube videos about the great gathering at York. One of the videos is interesting as it shows several Kings Cross footplatemen who worked on A4s talking about their experiences.
