The first train of the day arrives at Percy Main.
401 stabled next to the apron so the public can get up close to it over lunchtime.

The area under Wallsend Road bridges looking tidy after recent litter picking by volunteer Nigel.
This recent batch of coal produces some monster lumps of clinker that have to be shovelled out rather than dropped into the ashpan via the rocking grate.
The 08 shunts 401 back into the shed, and No.10 and the tank wagon back into the workshop, at the end of the day.
Daffodils in full bloom behind the Lambton hopper.
