Default Steam at Whipsnade Zoo.

Hello all ,
i do not know if this is a yearly event at the zoo or if this was a one-off the pics were taken on the 07/05/2007 and the engines would have been local to Bed's.




















Seeing as these pics were taken at a Zoo i had to include one of the "in-mate's" lol.



Ron.

What lovely pictures, thanks for posting them.

Seeing the pictures of Crimson Lady reminded me of my good friend and much missed George Fensom who owned her for so many years.

Is there still a steam up held here?
