Anyone know if there are any steam galas/running days in December or January? I suspect that December is all Santa specials?

The Grand Central Railway has their "Last Hurrah of the Season 'Steam Gala'" this weekend if anyone is looking for something to do.

I know I said 'Steam' but I have been seduced by the Mid Norfolk Railways Christmas Diesel Gala advert on their website, plus the fact that I have never been there before. looking forward to December 27.

I wonder if the enthusiast from Portsmouth that I ran across the field at Wymondham with yesterday afternoon is on here, enjoyed the gala, even if everything ran a hour late...
