Steve liked 35B's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

Spitfire liked 35B's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

Haighie liked Big Al's post in the thread RTC 2026.
A welcome return for a much loved locomotive. I don't think that West Coast should be given any grief over doing this without any fanfare. After all, I imagine that a few people in the company may be feeling a bit sheepish about the whole fuss...
