    No but it was hired in 20 odd years ago and its performance was loved by the Strathspey and Bo'ness crews. Pocket rockets indeed.

    Nothing beats a Std tank on a heritage line for ease of footplate crew, fireman especially. Driver too if the 'bacon slicer' isn't too stiff!

    Good to see the Strathspey gang have the capacity to help out. If there are some running turns for it, I would be inclined to pop up for a run behind it.

    Strathspey seems to be building quite a fleet for the future. The 2 Ivatt Moguls, 5025, 92219 and now 76079, that's without 828 at the Spa Valley.

    And Austerity No.9 is under active restoration. A long time since it ran and it was a real pillar of steam services through the 90s.

    Does make me wonder what the future holds for 828, it's been at the Spa quite a few years now- with 76079 at Strathspey will it spend more time as a roving ambassador?
