I was helping in the shed on the Saturday. Wished I had ridden behind a few of the trains on both Friday and Saturday now. Black 5 leaving Keighley is sensational. The sound and skill to keep the loco and train moving. Great stuff.

They managed to repair the 4F (problem with one of the injectors) and she worked a couple of trains later in the afternoon.
