I've just noticed some very important news that has just been published on the MNLPS website: https://www.clan-line.org.uk/news/clan-line-passes-its-vab-and-boiler-inspection/ It's funny how some loco owners just go about what they do without...

Mick45305 liked Johnb's post in the thread Jacobite 2024.
