HFF Great Central Railway Quorn Leicestershire 19th August 2023

HFF Great Central Railway Quorn Leicestershire 19th August 2023
At the Railways at Work event we were rostered on Stanier 8F 2-8-0 48305. Our second trip was on the pick-up goods to Quorn where we reversed into the yard leaving the goods rake to be "loaded/unloaded" by the station staff.

After a while we pulled forward onto the turntable to pose for photographs where Al is happily doing that!

HFF to everyone. Enjoy your weekend.

HFF Pete. The designer must have had a sense of humour, driving wheel diameter of 4'8.5". The loco type seems to have been a good performer.

The lion must be an old logo of British Railways, because I remember a sort of double arrow... HFF Pete.

The double arrow came with the diesels/electrics. Steam locos carried logos like this in the 1950s.

Hi Pete
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition, and a difficult one to make work, but the driver looking out really makes it. (Well, I guess he is the driver, even though on the fireman's side, as you are the fireman!)
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

With a turntable, making u-turn is easier with a locomotive than with a bus. Belated HFF, Pete!
