    Hello all,

    on the German forum www.drehscheibe-online.de there is a discussion about the Rocket replica which went to Nuremberg for the 175th anniversary exhibition of German railways. Which replica went to Nuremberg? I know that there are two, a working replica and a cut-away one. I believe that the cut-away one went but I am not sure.

    Thanks for any help.

    Kind regards

    Christoph

    The cut away one is the one that went to Nuremberg, the working one is at York

    Thanks for the information. Did that replica ever leave the UK before? Officials claim that this was the first occasion that this replica was shown outside the UK.

    Kind regards

    I'm not too sure about the sectioned one but I'm just about certain that the working one has been abroad before

    Hello,

    thanks for that. I expect this to be the most authoritative (is that the word?) statement.

    Kind regards
