I read the article but while 60163 has been worked hard since it came into mainline certification how many other mainline steam engines have been...
I put up 4 shots last night in the 'Assorted SG steam' gallery. They are of: 44871 at Keighley:...
While I wouldn't question any of the competencies of those who have built the engine or who arrange its operation, the media operation and...

Thanks :)
