    Happened to be in Ramsbottom when it rolled in on sunday lunchtime. (2nd trip I believe of the day). It was supposed to have been doubleheaded with the jinty but that failed.
    15 mins after it left 37901 arrived LE and crossed over the level cross into the sidings. I beleive it went as a precaution only if anything went wrong.
    Looks very nice and a final coat of paint still needed to LMS livery I believe.

    45337 was the first engine I travelled behind on the ELR back in August 2004, so hoping before the year is over to get a ride behind her again.

    45337 is not visiting Llangollen's Autumn Gala. With regards to what is happening to the loco, maybe the owning group will make a statement sometime.

    i would like to see it go to Churnet Valley and double head with 44767 up to cauldon Lowe. this would mean the loop would need to be put into service.
