MNR Autumn Diesel Gala 2009

Only a few photos from this year’s Autumn Gala featuring the home fleet and DRS’ 37510. A nice sedate affair compared to manic March, but nonetheless we were rushed off our feet all weekend. Thanks to everyone who helped make the weekend go without a hitch and of course everyone who attended – watch out for 2010!

OS_DSC_0431_270909_smallNosey, sir!

OS_DSC_0437_270909_smallWhile we wait for 50019 to be turned over so we could ‘lose it’ down the yard, a nice bit of morning light afforded this photo.

OS_DSC_0441_270909_smallIt’s early, far to early for a Sunday (see FCWG yawning to the right!) and 50019 rests at Dereham.

OS_DSC_0506_270909_smallLast orders for the weekend was 37510 hauling a fair old weight in the form of 5 Mk2s, 20069, 50019, 31438 and 73210 – dreadful!
