    Talking to today's crew on 12322 sadly it seems many were fooled by the headboard and at the request of management it was removed.

    It might of been all about 'Flying Scotsman' yesterday, but 12322 in my opinion outshone the A3 with a cracking run through Burrs on the 14.00 to Rawtenstall, fair play to the crew for that show ! Enjoy :)

    Which tells you everything you need to know about how the NRM blew £6.8 million 'educating' a public that can't tell (and isn't bothered about) the difference between a L&Y 0-6-0 and the kit of parts collectively known as 'Flying Scotsman'.
