    Ah well there we go then. It was at the first weekend so why would it need to take part in the actually 200 years to the day, makes total sense it being stuffed being the NRM :)

    I hate to say this, but stuffing and mounting 60103 would solve a lot of trespass issues...

    It goes further than that. They spent £4.5m on the most extensive overhaul it’s ever had and wasted two years of the boiler certificate with it doing virtually nothing. For the general public it’s the most well known locomotive in the land and they’ve seen nothing of it.

    It is pointless complaining about the NRM from a railway preservation enthusiast's perspective. The NRM is no longer managed by railway people but by museum curators. The strategic direction is quite clear from the Science Museum Group policy documents which can easily be found on-line, and some of which are referenced, with links provided, on NP.

    You are right and that’s the problem. Having said would exempt Anthony Coulls from your remark, he’s the sort of person the NRM needs.

    A better way would be to change the '3' to a '6' and 'Scotsman' to 'Fox'! :)

    Correct, 60007 took its place for the 2nd week.
    The pair of 43's had brought one of the DPS deltics back to Barrow Hill, no 9 i think.
    They then continued onto Darlington, picked up FS, and dropped it off at York.
    Maybe the cost effectiveness of getting FS back to York, utilising the 43's was behind the move.
    As i said, taking FS back to Shildon made more sense, but if nobody seems willing to operate her standalone on the mainline, needs must....

    I think all that &30567 was disagreeing with was your "beginning" to think, not with what you were and are thinking.
