    Dunrobin is going to be some loco when it is completed, hope it gets a good run on the SVR before it heads home to Beamish.

    Some on here may have been aware of the rumours about 4150 that had been circulating for some time. However, as discussed at yesterday's AGM and confirmed by email to Members this morning:

    "The good news is that at 20:58 on the eve of our AGM the final piece of the puzzle dropped into place and a running agreement was approved by all concerned. This secures 4150s long term future on the Valley and puts an end to the seemingly endless speculation."

    I've just enjoyed 80 miles of steam haulage today behind Erlestoke Manor at the WSR. It is a superb locomotive and handled the banks with ease. It certainly is a very popular loco with the WSR crews. [BJ]
