A great day, with 30926 down from the NYMR for the weekend. Other locos were 41312, 35005, 34007, 34016 and 73096, running on freight, passenger and breakdown trains.
As always at the Mid Hants the weather was none too great, but the rain held off for the most part which was the main thing. The best part? A double headed run up the bank behind 73096 and 35005 - the sound was magical. Well done to the MHR for a great day. |
