    I don't recall it either, but I had a vague recollection that Mk3's were not cleared round the coast which may have prevented it previously, albeit sorted now it would appear?

    First experience for our young 'un to see steam through in the dark, she loved seeing the glow in the cab from the fire.

    The Northern Belle has been round the coast a fair bit, but I'm struggling to think of any occasions behind steam.
