The owning group must be very pleased by the positive reaction to 4150's return to steam. It would be so easy to say, "Oh, it's just another Large...
I have never had any enthusiasm for these railway wartime events for a different reason - namely because they don't (and indeed can't) give any...
The crowds were out at Bursledon too (good to see you again, Don). All these years after regular steam ended, these specials still seem to draw...

I think that a stylish machine line the T3 would look good in any livery - within reason!
People used to park by the crossing at Quarr Farm - including me - until a notice appeared saying don't do this, so I haven't done so since....
