Great Central Railway

HFF Great Central Railway Quorn Leicestershire 30th August 2023

by Loose_Grip/Pete
British Railways Standard 5 4-6-0 73156 runs non-stop through Quorn & Woodhouse station this morning with a Silver Driving Experience train for Leicester North.

The lineside clearance team were re-directed to fence painting at Quorn ahead of the Diesel Gala next weekend which was fine until it started raining!

So it's not just HFF to everyone but a freshly painted fence - HFPFF - to everyone. Have a great weekend.

HFPFF Pete. I hope the paint dried before the rain fell. A bright and cheery photo, of a very clean loco.

Beautiful, nostalgic image. I travelled in one such many years back, then they were replaced by diesel or electric ones.

HFF ~ Have a great week end too
