Apologies for the absence of a blog recently. As many of you will be aware, FR
\n20 has been away on its holiday to Didcot and that has consumed many hours
\nof our time.<\/p>\n

So, for those of you who haven\u2019t been following social media elsewhere we
\nhave the following photos taken over the last weekend.<\/p>\n

\"CoalingFirst of all, FR 20 was coaled up in the old fashioned way from the Didcot
\ncoaling stage on Saturday for the second time. Difference here is that the coal
\nwas watered before despatch to prevent dust. There is video elsewhere of the
\nfirst un-watered effort!!<\/p>\n

\"FRFR 20 worked the \u201cBranch\u201d on Sunday, offering the opportunity for a photo alongside the broad gauge replica Fire Fly.<\/p>\n

\"InsideThe trainshed also produced an atmospheric shot of days gone by.<\/p>\n

\"PhotographersSunday afternoon and evening was taken up by an organised photo charter.<\/p>\n

\"TimThis involved some physical exertion for Tim!<\/p>\n

\"FRAs can be seen, FR 20 looked very much at home in the shed.<\/p>\n

\"KitchenBack at Preston, John Davis has grouted the tiles in the kitchen of Great
\nEastern Royal Saloon No. 5.<\/p>\n

\"JohnWork is well advanced on preparations to enable 5643\u2019s tanks, cab and bunker
\nto be lifted as part of the 10 year boiler overhaul. John Dixon is seen giving his
\nall in releasing the nuts securing the right hand balance pipe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
