    Do I hear correctly that the Cleethorpes Coast Light Railway is to have a new Doncaster built locomotive for unveiling at its May Bank Holiday Gala?
    All seems very secretive, and I live in the town.
    Any one else heard of this or is it a mix of Typhoon's visit at Easter.
    Cheers Bernard

    details were released on the 15" gauge forum of the MiniatureRailwayWorld.co.uk forums this week. Photos there of a beautiful machine.

    That's a stunning loco, it'd look even better lined out LNWR style.
