    I never thought of that, but are there any other stoker fitted locos preserved here in the UK? There are some large ex-SAR locos (the GL Garratt in Manchester, the 19F in Glasgow, the GMAM in ? Quainton Road and maybe others) which may have been...

    KF7 moved surprisingly easily once we had worked out where the joint for the stoker screw between engine and tender was. And what's more the loco together with Niteq (the NRM's battery shunting devise) were a snug fit on the turntable which saved...

    I try to avoid criticising people and if I fail, I apologise. The vast majority of those working on the NYMR are very pleasant people who you would be quite happy to know socially. What I am critical of is the way the Railway is being managed...
