    Never fear, Tom, 499 will be turned out in invisible green. Quite exciting enough, surely!:D

    Painted number is 30506. Back in the day (as the saying is) the men would have referred to it as 506.

    We visited on Tuesday for the Wizard event. Excellent work by all involved in creating a very enjoyable experience. The railway was very busy. We joined the long queue at the T-junction at Ropley for some very tasty chips and sausage rolls.
    I think we found all of the Rats in the Harry Potter carriage.
    30506 and 41312 were in very good form on the two Wizard Express services. The final run out of Alton with the S15 was a spirited charge up the bank with a wonderful soundtrack coming from the goods engine.
    Thanks to everyone involved for a great day out. A few low res shots below of the Ivatt and S15 along with a spooky observer of the trains at Medstead!
