A resounding thanks to all who helped put on the Easter weekend's activities at Didcot. Though I missed seeing both Kings in steam (Easter Saturday), I had a most enjoyable day on Easter Monday.

6023 looked and sounded magnificent; and it was splendid to photograph both "King Edwards" side by side. If only King George V could have been there too...

Here are a few (low-res version) shots from Easter Monday. A splendid day and thanks to all involved at Didcot.

Geat stuff, Simon; glad that you and Ian had a successful trip. It would be good to see some of your photos, too.

More than welcome, I'm gonna post a vid up later which is a photo/video compliation of the day including a two way passenger ride behind The King

I, too, went to Didcot at Easter to see the two Kings in steam. I can't remember the last time I saw a King, so to see two at the same time was quite something!

Some of the pictures that I took are now on my Flickr site and if anybody is interested to see them, this is the link :

Hope that they are of interest. I've still got some more pictures to add which I hope to do in due course.
