Great Central Railway Rothley Leicestershire 16th December 2020

Great Central Railway Rothley Leicestershire 16th December 2020
A belated Christmas scene now we are back to uploading images again!

If you're not keen on tinsel-bedecked locos you are not going to like BR Standard 9F 2-10-0 92214 lit up like this for the Winter Wonderlights trains! I think it looks brilliant and has certainly appealed to the public - every train to Christmas was fully booked. The GCR needs every penny that they bring in after such a debilitating year.

What an undertaking ! Like a grand clanking Christmas tree on wheels. It must look extraordinary charging across the countryside!

I think it looks great but others think it's too "artificial". When we turned the lights off at the end of the day everything seemed so dull.

Hi Pete

Great to see your pictures again, and a rather late ‘Happy New Year’!

This is a very nice picture, a concept which seems to be copied by all preserved railways now.
But, as Tractacus says, if it makes peopl ehappy , and brings in money, why not!!

Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
