Description The home fleet put on a fine performance during the Autumn Gala. Not surprising, since this is their home soil. Lancashire & Yorkshire Class 27 No.12322 'Lanky A' leads the charge, with LMS Crab No.13065 keeping up. These two engines were absolutely flying along the rails, not bad going, considering they were built in the 1890s and 1920s respectively.

Two of my favorite Midland locos!

An L&Y 27, and a Horwich Crab! (Oh, and if you come across a model of one for the series, I have some ideas for it...)

Ah... if it had been the Saturday it would have been me firing the Crab!

No, this was on the Sunday. Was a great double header all the same.
