    Apologies if there is a duplicate thread elsewhere, but I couldn't find it!

    Does anyone know how the plan to certify the replica Locomotion for main line use and run it over the Stockton & Darlington on the anniversary of that line opening in September is going, and if it is still planned to happen?
