Maybe I missed the location name.. but no need to be quiet about it as it looks like a permission visit to a heritage railway, I'm guessing it's on shed at Haworth on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway? (at least that's where 90733 is stabled).

Nice pics.

Cool pics, it's nice to see more places around the country, I loved exploring Carnforth's Steam Town and Tysley's Train Yard, I know bugger all about trains but I can stand and look at them for hours! I still wonder why I ever sold my Hornby train set:(

I used to work in a place like this!!!

Looks to me like a workshop for a heritage railway...

I used to clean up locos, paint them, dismantle bits, clear out a few fireboxes (not for the claustrophobic!) and help shunt around the yard...

And now I'm a bloody bus driver... hehe
