    Probably time for me to put that Eastern Pacific Double header request in again.

    Tornado & Scotsman venture to Ferryhill?
    Is SNG due back in 2020? Or Blue peter?

    In all honestly I was just thrilled to see No.9 back at 61B and on a flyer past Muchalls. I suppose Blue Peter would be the next best one personally.

    Blue Peter when it returns would look great on the turntable at Ferryhill. Engine that was historically based at Ferryhill like No.9 would look great on the Aberdeen road.

    3 dates for 'The Aberdonian' with No. 60163 have already been announced by the A1SLT. 23rd July, 3rd and 10th September. All Thursdays so far.

    With only 3 being announced (so far) and with no visit from next year's Great Britain you wonder whether with a target of 6 each year we may see more engines visit Aberdeen.
