    for someone so bitter, you don't miss a chance to have a dig . I'm also not sure running a farcebook group that gives the impression of both involvement , an active society and now offering 6024 branded products is not an especially good look . Quite what LSL would make would be interesting

    Can i point out that any funds from the sale of mugs with the king on it or anything else All the money taken from the sale are going to pancreatic cancer uk after shirley had this horrible illness .and i feel she can be a upset after what happened with the king and the way it was removed from the society care after all the years like me spent caring for the locomotive.

    credit where it is due , an earlier post does say this , but a header pic for a society that no longer exists and a tag line of supporting the engine is still questionable

    shirley and all involved ought to have appreciated they were investing a lot of their time and energy in a locomotive that was no longer theirs . There were already warnings with 5029 . What happened was always the risk whatever they thought the agreement was
