Atmosphere! Seen in a foggy Loughborough shed yard, visiting engines S15 4-6-0 506 and British Railways Standard 5 4-6-0 73082 Camelot being prepped on shed at Loughborough on the last morning of the Winter Gala weekend. I was pulling down coal in the tender after lighting up.

Against all the odds the sun shone over the GCR's January Gala & after signing off I made for Kinchley lane to capture the two British Railways Standard 5 4-6-0s: visiting 73082 Camelot & 73156, on the 13.45 train to Leicester. I had been rostered on 73082 in the morning and we did run double-headed with 73156 on the freight from Swithland but tender-first. I admit it's only a small fence!! Wishing everyone a HFF and I hope you have a great weekend!

Firing BR Standard 5 4-6-0 73082, visiting from the Bluebell during the winter gala. We had about 25 minutes to wait before departing with the 11.40 freight to Swithland which gave me plenty of time to make a brew in the porter's room and then prep the fire. This view offered itself on the way back. Despite there only being one person in this view the station was actually rammed with photographers and passengers.
