Duchess and 41241 and the 957 team

We had a little chat too 


Frome left to right are Jacob Halliday, Mark Lane, 
Ralph Ingham, Anthony Bainbridge and myself
Philip Shackleton with Noel Hartley our operations 
manager extreme left. Ralph Ingham and myself are 
leading the team overhauling L&Y 957. Ralph
leading the work on the boiler and myself 
leading on the bottom end, frames, wheels, 
running gear etc. 

The Duchess was interested in the work on 957 as 
the Railway Children is a favorite film. HRH then 
traveled to Oxenhope in the Old Gentleman's saloon, 
hauled that day by Taff Vale 85 driver Dave Coates 
and fireman Fran Hartley.
