That's not "hilarious"; I'm wavering between 'infuriating' and 'unbearably sad'. Because the line really is in a bad corner, and, as you observe, this is a pretty telling insight into who's minding the store. Noel

I don't think Bittern came with a spare boiler. Flying Scotsman did, but it was a A4 type (it might have been the one carried by 4472 in its previous overhaul by Tony Marchington) and was bought by LSL as a spare for Bittern, I think....
