    I have a feeling that the animosity between WC and the other TOCs is largely manufactured by certain factions with the lineside fraternity and armchair commentators

    Email has just gone out from MNLPS that sets out this is not their intention, though the boiler will be given high priority so that Clan Line can use it if necessary. I believe '25's boiler is in pretty good condition.

    As a SLL shareholder (who amongst other things joined to support the restoration of 35025), I support this proposal - and it has spurred me on to joining the MNLPS as a result. Should be good news for both organisations, and for the loco's future...

    And here it is leaving Preston that night. I was on the very last one - to Liverpool with 45318. [ATTACH]

    It doesnt look like it will be active for the 60th anniversary of its final BR passenger turn, the 20.50 Preston - Blackpool on 3/8/68. This was the penultimate scheduled steam passenger working - and I was on it:D. What a pity. Peter
