GL5 latest images

Post by MichaelTopham » Mon Feb 28, 2011 9:55 pm

I thought it would be good to get idea to get a thread running on some of the latest GL5 images from some of the most recent events. If you've got any shots you're pleased with, whether they're loco, wagon or coach based lets see them and hopefully Dave might be able to accommodate them in a future issue of Turnout. I'll start off proceedings with this effort of GWR Manor Class 7817 Garsington Manor in January after a hard days work. Note the working GWR Tipton headlamp courtesy of Pete Robinson.

A very smart paint job recently carried out on a Southern L1 Class. Note all the lining is painted by hand. Full credit to the painter Henry Mowforth, driver, fireman and engineer employee at the K&ESR.

I thought I'd show a few photos from last weekend's excellent GL5 event in Bath. A thoroughly good time was had by all. An excellent selection of locos, great company and as many as 50 wagons to shunt in the yard at times. Many thanks Nigel.

Hi all

Just a quick link to my son's blog, lots of GL5 images on it from Greystones and Gilling Mainline. Its on the railway modelling forum RMWeb

Link:

http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index. ... auge-blog/

Go down to the bottom of the page for the start. He'll probably cover all the GL5 events we attend.

Cheers

Guy
