Default 100 GDSF 2012 Photographs
Didn't take quite as many pics this year due to lack of movement on Wed/Thurs but here are 100 of my better efforts from the past week:





















































































































































































































Thanks to the engine owners for the huge amount of collective work that goes into getting the exhibits ready for the show.

Two questions:

2) How many Scenic's were there this year?

About 43, either built new or converted by Burrell during their working life. 16 survive and at GDSF in 2008 they manage to assemble 13 of them.
