I have three black and white pictures in my collection of the road gang posing against the roller at the hall on completion of the job. After a quick trip in the car to seek permissions etc, we took the old girl back to the hall to get some up to date pictures with her current crew. Incredible to think that there are nearly 80 years between the two sets of pics.

Absolutely fantastic to see the old girl out again David - you, Jo, the family and the whole team have done brilliantly from what you were faced with 3 long years ago. To see 78572 back at her old stomping ground surely made all the effort worthwhile? You must bring it back this way more often now.
