There's a lot of beautiful locos there, none more so than the pair of rather fabulous LMS Princess Coronations in the middle. Awesome stuff.

I've never really considered building a loco, but if I do, it'll be a Coronation.


Thanks for sharing. PS - where was it (the Gala, that is)?
Cheers!

Very nice indeed Stew. :thumbup:

Shame about the weather, I am sure it hit your visitor count. Just a little sunshine makes all the difference. :(

Yours will be on those tracks one day. :ddb: :ddb:

Beautiful. Pictures like this are enough to brighten up any day even if there is no sunshine. :D

I have to agree, the LMS Princess Coronations sure look awesome. :ddb:

Thanks for sharing them with us.

Cheers  :beer:
