Default Titfield Thunderbolt w/e,

Just returned from a fantastic weekend at the North Norfolk Railway celebrating the 60th anniversary of the release of that wonderful Ealing Comedy, 'The Titfield Thunderbolt'. These photographs contain railway locomotives so anyone of a nervous disposition, look away now.


Holt Station cunningly disguised as Titfield


The star of the show. 4104 and Wisbeach & Upwell coach

Gallopers at Holt


The other participant 92203 'Black Prince'


A pleasure to meet 'Sid James' who had come all the way from Swindon with Aveling 5590. Many thanks to all at the North Norfolk for their attention to detail . . . a great weekend.
