    Cannot imagine that it was travelling too quickly as the Duchess still has connecting rods in place.

    6825 Llanvair Grange only had a few months remain its self before being withdrawn from service. 6825 would be an ideal loco for a perserved railway.

    Yes, I guess all we are seeing is a hotch potch of someone else's ideas rearranged to give something supposedly new ... and the same could be said for the Grange :)
