Over the last week or so Dave has been doing a great job of doing posts on all the locomotives that featured in this years Watercress Line Spring Steam Gala. I had the pleasure of attending the gala with Dave and got some good shots which I thought I’d share with you.

This is actually my favourite shot from the gala and features Clan Line approaching Ropley.

The 35028s backplate.

Clan Lines firebox.

From the same location I was also able to get a photo of Wadebridge hauling the freight train.

Hope you enjoyed them.
