Wisbech & Upswell #7 Out On The Line!

At last!  The Wisbech & Upswell coach #7 rolled down the line for the first time after its rebuild.  Hauled behind 4-6-0 #, the coach made a run from the Weybourne shops, up to Holt, back down to Sheringham, and back to the shops.
Here's Nigel leaning on the bar, looking pleased as punch!  And so he should be.  He did a lot of work stick-handling the restoration and organizing the lads and lassies to do the work on the car.
This Saturday, October 2nd, will be M&GN member's day.  The coach will be part of a special M&GN train which will include the newly restored M&GN brake van hauled behind steam locomotive Ring Haw.  Should be quite an event!

Congratulations to everyone.  (Wish I could be there, fer shur!)
