Kenny's Railway Photography

[kennyGWSR]

Apologises for not uploading the last photos that i said i would, i lost track of time and they are now buried on photobucket!
Anyway, today was my first day of a 10 day long holidat in Yorkshire, of course i couldnt travel up without any railway activity, so here are the photos from the first stop of the journey, the Ribble Steam Railway, lovelt place, first time i had been, and wont be the last!

Walkden running round the train.
Now museum shots:

Sentinel Gasbag.

Lancashire and Yorkshire A class 1300.

2mt 46441

Lancashire and Yorkshire Pug 19.

LNWR Ramsbottom Tank.
Now compare these next two photos to see the what Ribble can do to a loco:

Windle, once a resident at the Middleton Railway, now being restored once again at Ribble.

Sister engine The King, superbly restored in the museum.
Embsay photos soon everyone!

And now for the Embsay photos.

Gotherbug (or Gothenbug, not sure) departing Embsay for Bolten Abbey with the Statley 1st class train.

6619 in the yard.

Norman runs round at Bolten Abbey.

A row of sad looking locos

Gothenbug passes our train at Stoneacre Loop.

Finally a sentinel of some sorts, lovely looking loco, might make a good project, wonder if dapol have any spare sentinel chassis?
Thats it till tomorrow!
Enjoy!
Kenny.

Nice to see Pickering returned to its former glory. They never even properly finished the demolition of the old roof, odd bits of metal sticking out of the stonework etc.
