    The adverts say Specsavers will come to you if you can’t get to them.

    Many of us would agree, but not everyone thought so when the Saints first appeared.

    The irony is that despite the cab being about three inches deep, from a quick inspection on Sunday it still looks like you have the normal GWR thing of the coal being situated in a different county from the firebox. Gonna be getting my steps in on Sunday, I think!

    I thought that particular accolade went to Gresley's W1, where it looked like you could hold a party in the cab...

    Damn! Three trips on the Atlantic ...

    (Actually, I was looking forward to the Saint in the interests of variety).

    Speaking as someone who is not the biggest fan of all things Swindon (9017 is ours now), I have to say the bark on 2999 is one of the best around
