It’s the 4 cylinder version in the Thumpers (same as class 73) whereas the 08s etc. have the 6 cylinder version. I’d also take issue with your...

To be fair, old enough to remember post-war rationing, and having things like sweets rationed would be pretty influential on a young child. (Same...
I've no idea what the stuff was but some of the loco crews were complaining quite vocally about it on FB afterwards...
Like many others here I'm generally uncomfortable with certain aspects of the WW2 themed events anyway. I enjoy seeing the railway busy and...
