    Recently returned to steam, this is currently on display outside Liverpool Street Station for two days only. Possibly the First time in steam on GER territory since 1917, when it was sold to Chepstow docks?

    (Apologies if a thread exists for this already - nothing came up in a search).

    Couldn’t they change it in steam? With Sir Berkeley out of action, as well with a couple of blown tubes,they are not having a good weekend.

    According to Beamish's Facebook page, this weekend is the last weekend of 229's current visit. It will be back in July for the 50th anniversary of Rowley Station at Beamish.
