    I feel like this is great news, and I hope that the feeling from inside the organisations involved is similar! I do hope that 35025 does return to the mainline, I have memories of seeing her at Loughborough when I was younger and thinking that...

    Having been a long time supporter of 35025 (from its GCR days) I was very pleased that SLL did take it on and proceeded with its preservation and protection. I am even more pleased that MNLPS are to restore it to Main Line running...eventually...
