All of which look like mainline duty loco's .. What a bloody sight ! Random, but pretty stunning Haha. The pocket rocket on the back looked abit out of place tho tbf
I am, and have been a volenteer there for a while, i said that in referance to the fact of all the locos beening run togeather, its not a manouver thats carried out often.
Nice to see the GCR's not undergoing a loco shortage!!!!
