Also, well done to 9351 for finishing top of the standard gauge steam engines.

The following locomotive all received 1 votes each: No 4, Firefly, 3850, 7820, 2803, 3650, 5619, 7822, 4965, 4953 + two diesels of perhaps more dubious GWR/WR allegiance: D1662 North Star and 47376.
Perhaps I need to “go with the flow” a little more, but a “1000″ as winner and a tie with a Narrow gauge non-GWR steam engine, well?….

Posted by David Jenkins | December 17, 2013, 8:30 pmDerek, if you don’t think the narrow gauge engine was GWR please look up the GWR numbering list and look under the number 3… I rest my case m’laud..
