March Diesel Gala in 2009
Class 37 425 light engine in very wet weather in March 2009 at The Mid-Norfolk Railways Dereham station
This March Diesel Gala had Class 60 059, but the weather was very poor on the day I went . I took the one below at Yaxham taking cover out of rain under the canopy.
Class 60059 in Load Haul colours in also dull wet weather at Yaxham station in March 2009 at The Mid-Norfolk Railway.
This class 60 is (2016) one of the class 60s still on the mainline and is now painted in DBS red with the name 'Swinden Dalesman'
This class 56040 was on the rear of the train above at Yaxham. Even the windsreen wipers were needed on this rear locomotive.
The Mid-Norfolk Railway Preservation Trust
It was only around 1995 that The Mid-Norfolk Railway Preservation Trust started to restore this line between Dereham and Wymondham. It now has 17.5 miles of track (11.5 miles is in use) which when its is all in use, will be one of longer preserved railways in the UK. A lot of the other preserved railways had already had a twenty year start when they started.

This website is Ukrailways1970tilltoday.me.uk it is on railways but it is not just on trains but all things railways, with photos, which I have taken from the 1970s till now. I take photos of all things railways, steam diesel and electric trains, signal boxes, wagons any thing that is on the National Rail network, which was BR when I started taking photos.
