GWR 8F's 'Early Morning Awakening' - 9.10.2021

            9.15am on Saturday 9th October 2021 sees the day's first locomotive movement during the Great Central Railway's Bus and Train Spectacular held at Quorn and Woodhouse Station.

The crew of 'Guest Engine' GWR 2800 Class 8F No.3802 'Make Haste' when moving forward, from Loughborough's locomotive yard, to collect its empty coaches forming the day's first departure from Loughborough Central at 9.25am.

A few moments earlier the locomotive had just taken on water from the tower in the mid left hand background - now enveloped in smoke and steam!
