Great Central Railway Loughborough Leicestershire 11th January 2025

            Two of a kind!

British Railways Standard 2 2-6-0s 78018 & 78019 on shed at Loughborough. Phil and myself - with help from cleaner Mitchell - had just disposed 78018 after a one-tripper to Leicester and I was heading for my car. Note the two long-chimneyed braziers alongside 18 the heat from which should ensure the injectors & tender don't freeze overnight.
