RAIL TOURS AND OPEN DAYS

Pictures in this gallery are of tickets for enthusiast railtours and open days of various sorts, including programmes, brochures and flyers where I have them. These pictures are published for pleasure/information/research purposes only and are not for sale or copy under any circumstances. Information in captions has been researched as thoroughly as possible but its accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

OPEN DAY - BOSTON RAIL 150 (1) - This was a really low-key affair held over the weekend of 12/13th September, 1998, to celebrate rail traffic into Boston Docks. I don't know why 990 'Henry Oakley' was here but it was withdrawn in 1937 from Lincoln Depot and many of these engines ended their days on the easy gradients and light loads of the Lincolnshire flatlands including the Ivatt 4-4-0's and Robinson's GCR Atlantics. The little boy is my grandson. - he loved it, even better than the Toton Open Day!
