Default Statfold Open day March 2013
Few pictures from Statfolds barn open day. As usual, loads of new stuff to see. I for one have never seen snow on a Statfold open day, so although only 7 engines ran of the 17 engine that were meant to be running, it was still a good day. All the road engines are all still hibernating.


11240 having a repaint, looking splended


Aveling 10510 looking sorry for its self, available for sale to a keen enthusiast with lots of time and skills




Aveling 10005 going back together


Simplicity 'Emily'






And Some Train pictures

New arrivals from India, 2 Baldwins. Note 2 cylinders, made from the same pattern, just reversed.


Snow scenes








Ive loads more pictures but mostly all of the same stuff.

I believe 1 is for sale, 1 is for restoration. He's just not decided which one.

yes, ex "Darke's". Worked with Ikanopit, the Foden's lived in the forest and the Foster delivered the timber to the station I believe.
