We had a spontaneous break in Leicestershire on and around the Great Central Railway – Kerry’s suggestion and my first proper visit! If you’ve not visited, you really should.
A very smart looking class 37/7 no. 37714 Cardiff Canton was on shed at Loughborough – a sign of getting old when parts of your childhood are preserved for posterity!
Absolutely, very strange feeling now the things you remember from your childhood are classed as vintage! I was at the GCR yesterday and the tractors sounded absolutely splendid!

In my head the year 2000 is only a couple of years back, but then I have an awful realisation that it’s twenty two years ago!
We’re heading back to the GCR for my birthday all being well – I’d love to see D6700 in action!
