    Recently returned to steam, this is currently on display outside Liverpool Street Station for two days only. Possibly the First time in steam on GER territory since 1917, when it was sold to Chepstow docks?

    (Apologies if a thread exists for this already - nothing came up in a search).

    Only until tomorrow evening. Returns to Flour Mill once the abnormal load time restrictions end.
