Mr Hurley & Co have made a smart job on the Marshall Roller!

Certainly done a better job of it than they did of taxing the ERF by all accounts;)

Here's a few of my photos

Thankyou to Michael and his team for arranging such a good show, and personal thanks to Michael for inviting me to Thistledown's first steaming.

Love the 'Russian' Fowler but IMO that whistle should be consigned to the bin or at least a railway loco*cry

The taxing of the ERF was firmly in the hands of the transport department not us.;)

What's that infamous quote: "There's no 'i' in 'team' :p

Quite right but that part of the 'team' acts independantly to the rest of us and is beyond our control or influence. Anyway our part of the 'team' stepped in to make alternative arrangements resulting in the engines attendance if only a few hours late. So there.:p
