Hi Graham, i dont have any pics of either 66 or 308 at Dorset as i couldnt get time off work. However a few pictures of 66 after repaint into red livery appear on a facebook page i have created initally for RM308 but as RM66 resides with her i have decided to include her as well. The link is as follows feel free to have a look and comment

Re: Dorset steam Fair

We obtained 66 about 8 weeks ago and set ourselves the goal of getting her to the GDSF with 308. It was hard going with long hours...the beds went in sat night and she went to the Blaenavon Rly vintage vehicle rally on Sunday 30th to iron out any problems...there wern't any so off she jolly well went for some sun and dust with 308 for a holiday in Dorset. We were taken aback with all the nice comments about the work and she did turn a few heads!! There is a picture of them at the fair on their facebook group site, follow the link on Keith's post.

My bus number (if any): RM 308 and RM 66 (Group)
