I don't want to get into the SVR's politics but I imagine that, like the last set of main line outings, the engine's use off the SVR will be restricted to off-season dates when they run shorter trains with the smaller engines. I don't off hand...

If I recall correctly, 2968 ran with 5110s tender in the 90s because there was a problem with the Fowler one which has subsequently been rectified. I'm sure @2968 will correct me or expand.

I'm guessing it will be used on the Polar's first, I could be wrong. There is a Worcester Shakey at the start of the November, so it could be available in time for that. I did hear that it be fully decked out in Polar insignia, so us purists may...
