It was that time again. The GCR’S autumn gala saw 10 steam
locos in steam and a rapid procession through Quorn and Woodhouse on both Saturday
and Sunday. The visiting B1, dressed up as Oliver Bury, and the spam can, City
of Wells, were the added attractions.
Sunday was bright, starting off cool, so we began in the
porters’ room café under the bridge with a nice cup of tea and a fire in the
grate. The car park in the field overlooking the station gives photographers a
fine, elevated view of the action on the double track section past the island
platform. The trains just kept on coming – a festival of steam.
