Sorry I misunderstood
some folk call all 66's grade B's because they prefer 60's and 67's but he may have a different explanation

Glorified Garden Shed ie..Auto Coach is what I meant was in a bit of a huff when typing my first post to mre the GCR don't seem to like Diesil as they use any oporutunity totake off a Diesil and replavce with steam.

The GCR have had to pay to hire that "Garden Shed" John, and see an opportunity to raise a little more cash with it, the railcar is based there and used most weekends, it may be annoying to you that it's being used this weekend along with 1450, but to me, well, I missed the Gala the other week so I can at least get a ride in it before it leaves the GCR.

Swings and Roundabouts I'd say.
