    There doesn't seem to be a thread for this (I've got such things wrong before), so...given all the 'activity' on the BIL thread, I thought I'd open one.

    Question is, do I get up at stupid o'clock and get over to the Lil NW in the hope of seeing a big green steam machine?

    A typical Northern Wimp, Henry mate! 4 am is the norm if I go up north and for Fort William it's an all night drive. I did think about doing this one but the waether forecast seems to be getting worse.

    I have only just seen the weather... I'll take my chances and hope for the best, but this opportunity can be shaded by an umbrella and waterproofs quite easily I'd say

    Will be providing the Bulleid Pacific reception committee at York. Will almost certainly be waving it off, anyway.
