@thebashmash It is very tempting to get an MDF "Facebook Manor" nameplate made!

[Foxcote Manor 7822 @Foxy7822]

@LlangollenRail @ds_trains Thats right, 7822 is signed up to run at the WSR this year. However you will still get to see at least two ex-GWR locomotives at Llangollen, plus more to come!

[Foxcote Manor 7822 @Foxy7822]

The works started. We have a busy few months ahead!

A nice touch from the NRM to celebrate the life of preservation great and former Foxcote Manor Society President, Sir William McAlpine.

[National Railway Museum @RailwayMuseum]

We'll be commemorating Sir William McAlpine's life and work on Friday with a naming ceremony of a Class 90 locomotive in his name and a visit from Flying Scotsman.
