Hydraulics Times Six

In this panoramic view of a very busy Gunnmere Junction we see all six of our diesel hydraulics in a single photograph.

All of the locos have had DCC sound decoders fitted and three of them (Classes 22, 35 & 42) have been weathered subsequent to purchase. The other three are still in pristine condition but will probably be weathered in due course.

From left to right they are, in TOPS number order:
