    The Atlantic is a high-days and holidays loco, rather than something that's going to be flogged. It's also likely to be considered a larger medium sized engine, rather than something that could replace the Hall on our heavy trains. The Accounts...

  7. JBTEvans liked acorb's post in the thread 6880 Betton Grange.

    Had a very enjoyable day with round trips behind both the Grange and Saint. 6880 ran like a sewing machine with very little effort needed to shift a full 8 coach load. This is clearly a very powerful loco which will be popular and useful across...

  12. 7P6F liked Johnb's post in the thread 6880 Betton Grange.
