    I believe it is, since she finished service in the Netherlands and came back to Britain at ribble I don't think she has ever left there

    Paid a flying visit Sunday morning to what seemed to be a very good gala. Walkden sounded very impressive (especially banking the freight out of Chasewater Heaths!), and the timetable meant that there was a loco to see at each station at most times - good thinking, that. £5.95 rover excellent value for money, as was the museum sales stand - good quality magazines at 5p each, and the bloke seemed shocked when I offered they keep the change! Also particularly impressed with the slickness of the shunting moves, many larger lines could learn a lot from that!

    Glad you enjoyed the gala, that is what we want
    Glad you enjoyed the banking of the freight on Sunday, I was on the regulator and it seemed impressive from in the cab as well!
    It was a nice engine to shunt around with as the steam brake is nice and easy to use
