    1466 arrived at Didcot West yard on Friday. Hopefully it's moving to DRC today. [ATTACH]

    possibly not accurate to Haulwen at MA but No8 certainly has them so it’s pro-typical. As No8 is in LMR livery and 7754 is in BR colours then it was a reasonably good opportunity to do something different. regards Matt

    A few things I've seen recently: - Haulwen returned to service today - Austerity tank HE3163 WD132 Sapper at the Dean Forest Railway could be out on trials following overhaul next month, and it's hoped it'll be ready in time to cover for 9681...

    Accurate or not I think looks pretty nice :) Not to mention that I don't think many British steam locos have worn wasp stripes in preservation, let alone in this black & white style so I think it helps in making Haulwen look unique

    Another day of celebration as Haulwen returns after 9 years. Huge congratulations to all the team involved. regards Matt
