Forget the proposed Shed in the Park - this is real engineering (although not quite up to Swindon Works standards):

BR(S) Merchant Navy Class 4-6-2 no 35028 Clan Line is scheduled to take on water at Newbury Racecourse Station at 10.45am Saturday 21st November. It leaves for Bristol at 11.13am.

35028 Clan Line

Don't forget to stand on the bridge as it leaves for the full heady aroma of hot oil, steam and smoke!

Wow! So many people at Newbury Station to see Tornado today - including lots of young families.

Looks like the next steam train will be GWR King Edward I on the Saturday 26th June.

It wasn't me that started the insults. angry.gif

Every one to their own as far as I'm concerned as long as it does no harm.

No need to insult people just because of their interest.

Obviously the sarcasm was lost on you! blink.gif

I was trying to highlight the reference by Strafin in post 52 on this thread that those who take an interest in this subject are "losers" by pointing out that a large number of people turn out to witness these events.
Are they all "losers"?

Anyway - end of subject.

For those who are interested I will continue to highlight forthcoming steam locomotive visits to Newbury.

For those who aren't - just ignore the thread as I do the football one! mellow.gif
