    Nope, it's still at the ELR undergoing overhaul.

    This weekend you should have at least 4 steam locomotives running.

    Don't anyone get excited by the colour of the paintwork. That is just an undercoat for when it's run in. The Apple Green paint is ready and waiting :)

    I believe 1306 'Mayflower' and 246 'Morayshire' are the only ones at present though the former is almost out of ticket. Soon to be joined by 4472 & 8572. There was an item somewhere that 1264 might come back in green but not sure how true that was.
