      Thanks for the recognition, John, much appreciated. There will be photos going into the next Heritage Rail of the engine in the paint shop being lined and lettered. We and Ronan spent a lot of time researching the livery details, as should happen.

      To be honest, i give up on these people playing trains rather than preserving history.

        Thanks Jim, I am a member of the fund but unfortunately not a a practical way. The Valley is 100 miles from home and I spend a lot of time working on a certain MN due back form Devon soon. I think those who like to play I trains are mainly in the younger age groups. Unfortunately those of us who remember real steam are getting thin on the go round as the years pass.

      Thanks for your message John. It had disappeared by the time I looked again. Not to worry. I was just being a bit circumspect. Some managed to get the Anderson shot in sun so maybe I'll have another go later this month if there is a loco facing that way. Waiting to se when 45212 goes back to Carnforth with the ecs - this week or next. Cheers. Dave
