    Yes I am an active volunteer
    Naughty! There were three rules when double heading Stanier Pacifics: Two Pacifics coupled together could not run at the head of a train (they could run light engine together between a station and shed); the other engine had to have a bogie, i.e. 4-4-0, 4-6-0 or 2-6-4T, and in the event of double heading, the Pacific had to be attached to the train and the other loco act as pilot.
