Excelant set of pics David. Don't think we will see pics like them again. Cant believe how much Roger looks like his dad. Fred would be very proude of the boys and the girls back together with both engines even though for a short while. Only wish i could have been there. The atmosphere must have been electric.

Very good.
The right hand back tyre on the landy is on the wrong way round! The tread is slightly directional.

Mine was like that for some time before I realised.

Superb pics David and what a wonderful afternoon, the only downside was your wife talking me out of having a burger lol. I wonder what's going through Neil Carneys mind (pic 10) as some of you know Neil worked alongside Fred and probably knew him more than most.

I thought Stuart Hall did an excellent speech, as did the local vicar who even said a prayer..fantastic.
