The tender brake shaft has now been painted black! [ATTACH] Also to be seen are the fitted bolts with painted heads, so the final assembly of this item is just about to happen. On display over the "Deltic" weekend on Loughborough platform was...

I was privileged to be rostered driver on 2968 during it's post gala appearance at the ELR last autumn. I was impressed by it, a very nice machine. Having driven 42765 on many occasions i would describe the Stanier version as being sure footed...

We don't know why but it is; the older SVR drivers who worked both it and Black Five 5110 will tell you the same. Both these engines worked eight-coach trains southbound over the Central Wales line and the difference in speed is notable; 2968's...

So when is 7325 joining it? :D I had some epic runs behind that pair. Plymouth (62 late Exeter, 17 late Plymouth! I believe the return was just under an over after a signal check outside Exeter), Okehampton, first steam run up the Lickey.

I can state that the SVR has been involved in this from the beginning. After that we move into the realms of commercial confidentiality and I wouldn't go there, even if I knew the answers.

I don't want to get into the SVR's politics but I imagine that, like the last set of main line outings, the engine's use off the SVR will be restricted to off-season dates when they run shorter trains with the smaller engines. I don't off hand...

Yes, 2968 - or 13268, after 56 years I can't get the hang of calling her that! - will run with the correct Fowler tender. The first main line runs used, as acorb says, 5110's Stanier tender while a new tank was built for the Fowler tender. She...

Spot on, the Fowler tender has now been totally rebuilt and she currently resides in as built condition - very much doubt they would do anything to spoil that. The Stanier tender came from 45110 and was conveniently available at that time as...
