Holden designed B12 number 8572 departs from Sheringham with a Sunday afternoon service on the 18th June 2017.
With temperatures well into the 30s this week was pretty much the best summer had to offer and there can't have been many better places to spend it than on the Norfolk coast with this fine GER survivor for company.
LNER B12 8572 makes it's final run down the GCR of the gala weekend, with the 1605 departure from Loughborough. Seen at in fading light at Woodthorpe, note the glow from the firebox on the fireman's back.
Visiting LNER B12 no 8572 powers away from Quorn, on day one of the GCR Winter Gala. Sadly the train reached us before the sunshine!
CN C40-8M 2441 rolls around the curve at B12 interlocking in Franklin Park in a view from the Glory Hole.
The old cowl units are getting rare on the point, as oodles of new boring generic GEs have made their presence known on the former WC around Chicagoland. The 2441 is one of the few remaining motors with the short-lived CN North America map logo, making this catch even better.
GER/LNER B12 4-6-0 61572 in storage at Stratford, on a grey day in November 1961.
The loco had been withdrawn by BR two months earlier, and spent some time in storage at Stratford works, before being purchased for preservation in 1963, and overhauled for the 'Wandering 1500' railtour. That was the last time the loco was in steam - until 1994.. It arrived at the North Norfolk Railway in 1967, and subsequently had a somewhat fraught and convoluted preservation history..
Today (2020) it is still based at the NNR, and operating in LNER green livery, as 8572.
This location is unrecognisable today, and is part of the 2012 Olympic site, and Stratford International station.

With a Milwaukee Road-era signal bridge above and the Southern Railway heritage motor below, it was looking pretty good at B12 Interlocking on an overcast morning in Chicagoland.
NS 65K-13 was slowly following the YPRCP into Bensenville, contributing to the gridlock and chaos already occurring during the half hour it took YPRCP to pass through.
The B12 was built by Citroën from 1925 until 1927. It's all-steel body was quite revolutionary for European cars at that time, as was Citroën's mass production line. The B12 has a 1.5 litre engine.
LNER B12 Class 4-6-0 No 8572 visiting from the NNR was on duty for a second weekend before moving away. We see the B12 on the 09.30 service to Leicester North at Woodthorpe on the GCR. Keeping a watchful eye on the small gallery is loose_grip_99 Pete Hackney seen leaning out of the cab.

Iowa Pacific E8 518 changes lanes to Track 3 on the CP Elgin Subdivision at B12 Interlocking in Franklin Park on a deadhead move to Chicago Union Station.
CP GP38-2 4511 was leading the G41 transfer onto the Harbor Belt while a YPRCP recedes into Bensenville Yard.
I love it when a plan comes together.
