Am I right in thinking that this engine was one of the ones that was there especially for the 175th event? The website said that they had some engines from the line's steam days.

Somewhat belatedly, here are a selection of photos of the unveiling of the history board at Radley station from last weekend's event.

It's nice that they've put a board like that there. Informing people of the railway history is always good in my books.

I've just noticed that the website has been changed so that everything reads "was planned" instead of "will happen"/"is planned". Interesting. I would have thought that, seen as they can't have made a profit from the day, they would have not been able to pay for the website and it would have been shut down.
