    Not linked to 46447, but WightWanderer (or Jack, who also now does videos for the IoWSR's YouTube channel), released a video on Invincible the other day and mentions that the railway is hosting a consultation on August 26th, with it's volunteers and members, regarding the future of the loco.

    I wonder if this is being handled very well by the ESR? The Isle of Wight has issued a statement to its members to the effect that the ESR has jumped the gun by making the proposal public before any formal agreement has been reached. Interestingly the ESR doesn't appear to have made any contact with their own membership on the subject. Left hand and right hand?
