I'll keep this thread just for the event, but I'll be posting lots more on the thread in the loco forum tonight of the fun that followed the group's AGM.

However I'd like to introduce you to the Tees Cottage Express.

My appolagies, for only just uploading these now. But we had a corker of a weekend at Tees Cottage Pumping Station. Attendance by visitors broke all previous records for the first open day of the season, with over 800 people through the entrance, on top of that the railway had its most successful running too. Over 300 passengers carried on the little 7.1/4" line. With predominantly steam engines running.

Hope you enjoy.
