Very nice shot Graham, like you say a once in a lifetime photo.

Lovely. But in your case Graham, since you have seen these in operation before, it is sorta is a twice a lifetime shot! (Dear oh dear, I know some in the UK have been very upset with 60010's condition. It looks like at least a soapy wash would have been in order.)

Even though I'm more of a United States locomotive fan, this scene is just.... WOW.

Can't we just keep them now they are back home?!... Oh and because neither of the two arrivals are in tip-top condition this scene could be "Top Shed" Circa 1960, this is how heritage/preservation should be in my opinion, far to much spit and polish usually.

I never thought I would ever see the three of them together again,a clean up and a lick of paint will improve No 10s condoition.

As a Montrealer (of British decent!) I'm ashamed of the state The "Dominion of Canada" is in. I've seen her twice, stuffed in the back of the Canadain Railway Museum in Delson QC rusting away. At least she'll get a coat of paint and hopefully when she comes back "home" we can put her on display (properly)!
