Wonder if 925 will get an opportunity to go out elsewhere on loan again in the future- it seemed to be well liked at the MHR and elsewhere.

Any idea why the Q1 and the 20 have barriers round?

 

Not sure why, also Ellerman Lines in a massive cocoon in a fenced off area right in the middle of the museum,

 

That sounds likely to be asbestos removal if it’s in a cocoon.

 

sorry should have said metal and wood cocoon. looks very unsightly stuck in the middle of the museum
