Re: March 14th - National Railway Museum York
My pictures finally!
All can be found here http://www.flickr.com/photos/c_cardwell ... 640557016/ there are lots of pictures of the super shiney room (that Vicky wouldn't let me stay in, something about needing food) but that didn't have great lighting and everything was behind glass!
The cause of much much excitment...
Why is this in a cabinet :'( There were at least a billion such engines in the shiney room
Chef Hitler (yes, really)
Ben, Mickt, Pete, Andy and Adam deciding riding on a mini train isn't for them
Steve pimping his new camera (that I forgot to steal for a play of!)
5"gauge MiniDeltic Me Rupert and Ben must have spent ages getting excited over this... again, such a shame its in a glass cabinet. It's designer/builder past away and it must have been donated like pretty much everything else in that room.
Oooooh, I remember, we went to have a Volvo meet. I kinda forgot about this photo wise

Re: March 14th - National Railway Museum York
I too see it cropped, but it's not on flickr! I'll try and fix it.
There is a load more baby deltic pics in the album inc some of internal engine photos. It was soooo awesome!
EDIT:: V3M is just randomly chopping width from the pics instead of resizing like it used to I'll make them smaller so they fit

Yep, the 7 in the pic, plus your gorgeous green GLS and the red 340 mk3. There was also a V70R that turned up very late too and for some reason was unwilling to come into the car park and join in the pics. 9x 300's, 1x 240, 1x 850, 1xS70, 1x V70 and 1x S80 in total.
Terms and conditions apply. This post may go down as well as up. Regulated by the Financial Services Authority. Hard hats to be worn. No reversing without a banksman. No admittance to unauthorized persons. Stop that. Put that down. Leave that alone.

Re: March 14th - National Railway Museum York
I was up at 10:45, which for going to bed at 4:30am could have been worse...
I couldn't rush right out of the door anyway...I had to stay for a polite length of time having enjoyed my friends' hospitality the night before!
Besides, who wants to see FWD toss anyway! Speaking of which, the 343 is off to the bodyshop a week today. Hurrah!
cheers
