The 1960's Gala usually included some demonstration freights, and following 78019 was this Black Five with the 11.40 to Rothley.

The loco is still at the GCR, but has just come out of service for a major overhaul.

A couple from the 2006 "1960's Gala" here. I can only think the weather must have folded as my records show I spent the rest of the day riding the trains, something I haven't done since!

78019 is about to pass under the A6 with the 11.30 Loughborough - Leicester.
