@robmasterman Thanks Bob and I agree with your comments. The event was a bit chaotic, but it was good to see such strong support for the event..

Superb video mate, thumbs up

It was great to see her finally restored, I think she looks fantastic in blue

We must have been stood right next to each other when she was heading off to the turntable, I can see my tri-pod right at the edge of the left hand side of the screen at 1:30

@letmadnessbegin Thanks, there were so many people there and so many cameras! I bet half the Youtube posters were there. Good day, great engine.

I do think it's wonderful how Didcot don't get all obssessed about "You must wear high viz jackets if you're within 10 feet of the track!!!"

[MG06ZT]

@AndreiTupolev Yeah, they are quite easy going, always a nice atmosphere. Great place to visit. Thanks.

@The66200 I expect quite a few will say that, I didn't expect to like but I do.
