    You'd better not look in "Galas and Events" then.

    I shan't be making a habit of it. :)

    It still as one defective power unit although plans are underway for the dud one to be repaired. However, like all things it will cost a bob or plenty.
    Check out the web site for more details including a main line railtour in December to help raise funds for the repair. http://www.royalscotsgrey.com/

    Cheers,
