Friday January 24th was a typical English January day cold, damp but relatively calm. The guest engines at the gala were LNER K1 62005 and Great Western Hall Class 4953 Pitchford Hall. The other locomotives featured here are; Black 5 45305, 6990 Witherslack Hall, 73156 and a glimpse of 46521 warming up for the morrow. Time keeping slipped 10 minutes from the start and by early afternoon, to paraphrase Reginald Perrin, "50 minutes late at Quorn, points failure at Loughborough."
