#DrakeloweHall - A rather large English #mansion with a history going back a thousand years, except it was demolished in 1934, and in the 1950s a power plant was built on the site.

Sir Nigel Gresley, steam locomotive designer, was a cousin to the family that lived here.

These chromolithographs are fun to clean up in #GIMP3 - solid colour, no dot screen.

Here's what dad and I were off to see today: the gorgeous 1930s streamliner loco, Sir Nigel Gresley https://www.flickr.com/photos/woolamaloo_gazette/54789775256/in/photostream/lightbox/

Huge, powerful, fast & very beautiful, engineering and aesthetics combined.

Today 19th June 2025 we had the unveiling the Gresley Plaque and Interpretation Board at Doncaster Railway station. A very successful day. Today would have been Sir Nigel Gresley's 149th birthday. Thanks to all those involved especially the Gresley Committee, Bill Mchugh MBE Ann-Marie Loversall Doncaster Council, Philip Benham MBE and Chris Clark Ed Turn , Steve Kimber Doncaster David Ingleby and last not but least myself Marion Baxter & Keith Crouter. #sirnigelgresley
1. Since last year along with myself and the Gresley Plaque Committee have been organising a Blue Plaque along with the Interpretation Board for Sir Nigel Gresley. I am pleased to announce the plaque is ready and the board will be done shortly. This all began over a year ago with one of my followers on the D&DFHS Facebook page wanted to find out the mystery of Shillington, Avenue Road, off Thorne Road, Doncaster where Sir Nigel gresley and his family once lived. #sirnigelgresley

Happy New Year! This is probably my shot of 2024, of 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley - taken in October, but the result of 6 months of planning. And a big chunk of luck.

Happy New Year! This is probably my shot of 2024, as 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley departs Sheffield Park in the evening light. Taken in October, but a shot I’d been planning for since April, and I got it nearly exactly as I envisioned it.
