Richard with ‘Viceroy’ and Andrew
Hi there, we thought it would be nice to run a few ‘Mince Pie Special’ trains last Saturday to celebrate Christmas, so the day, which was dull, misty and mostly dry, saw ‘Isabel’, ‘Prospero’ and ‘Viceroy’ out and about with several of us having a drive in the very atmospheric conditions until we had had enough at which time it was decided to separate the tenders and take the locos up to the top workshop for their warm winter storage just in case it turned cold over the Christmas and New Year period. So a good day was enjoyed by us all, and we were also joined during the day by some of Peter’s family who also enjoyed their visit too, even Stuart was allowed to drive ‘Viceroy’!, There was much ‘mardling’ over some mulled wine, teas and coffees,and the satisfying consumption of mince pies, sausage rolls, and other tasty offerings!
Happy Christmas everyone !
