Come on KentYeti, there's a fair few of us on here that know full well that when you finally get back onto a steam hauled train, especially one...
Sunday 20th March see's the ELR Spring Steam Gala take place: http://www.steamtrain.co.uk/event/an-article-with-a-really-long-title-and-stuff...
For once I actually agree with you, that is complete lunacy! Now, what was that comment about not even making it south.....? ;)
I know, just wanted to end the quarrelling about liveries again........
Did anyone actually get any footage of yesterdays test run rather than worrying about the livery, again!
It didn't, it ran over the Carnforth - Hellifield - Preston - Carnforth circuit for it's loaded test run. Saturday was it's first passenger hauled...
Good to see the video's and photo's doing Saturday's run justice! It was a brilliant, tiring day but still worth every minute of it and the run...

Remember 871 came to grief because of the rail conditions, there's a video of Ian taking a sample of the rail head conditions in front of the engine.
Well with 34067 and Mayflower now "penciled" in to cover for 70000, one would like to hope so.
Glad to see the sun eventually came out!
