As mentioned by Ross in the previous update, Tuesday and Wednesday saw the GCR host a Timeline Events Photocharter. These events used the Van train rake made predominantly from our vehicles, 11 of the 12 vans we are responsible for. 
As for the gala the vehicles maintained there labels, chalking and posters adding to the overall aim of the charters, to recreate a bygone age.
On Tuesday 30th the rake was hauled by Ivatt Class 2 46521

I was on hand both days to react to any issues with the vans and also as a reenactor adding a human element to a number of shots, carrying out the roles of P-way Staff, Station Inspector, Shunter, and a 1960s gent observing the passing of steam.
