Spa Valley Railway Scottish Steam Up

Post by Blue Diamond » Tue Apr 05, 2022 8:40 am

Cracking day down at the Spa Valley with the Caledonian Railway's finest - plus a couple of resident locos. The ale on the train was pretty good too. :)

Are you local to the Spa Valley Railway?
In this world there's two kinds of people, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.

Sadly not. I live in Bedfordshire but it's not too long a drive to get there.

Did you pop into the Aviation Book Shop near Tunbridge Wells station? Well worth a visit if you haven't been there before.
