Great Central Railway 2009-10 Photographs


2010 Winter Gala

A Superb first event of the year from the Great Central Railway. Eight Locomotives in steam, including the Preservation debut of Jinty No. 47406, and a return to steam for 44767 George Stephenson.
When assembling this gallery, I realised that missing from this page is my photos from the GC through 2009, and I will endeavour to put these up over the coming weeks.
