Being a member I am bound to say its good! However don't just take my word for it, it's brilliant if your looking for continuous action. Best place to be on a gala day beside Loughborough, is Quorn. The action there is every few minutes, in fact it's busier than when it was a mainline station. That's mainly down to it being a double track line from Loughborough to Rothley. There is an unmissable day on the 10th and 11th May when the Swithland sidings will be open to the public. It's a brilliant show with action on two mainline tracks and two loops, beside the branch line to Mountsorral.
I'm sure you will find it fast and furious with as many as eight loco's in steam!
Hope to see you there one day
All the best
Phil
