    There was a low-loader with a black Stanier tender parked in a lay-by on the eastbound A14 this evening just after the Catthorpe interchange. Just wondering which loco it might have been off/ where it was going ?

    Thanks 5944- yes, ties in with the 'weathered' appearance. Tractor unit appeared to be having some trouble.

    Will 45337 be staying on the NNR for the Summer?

    45337 doesnt work at the ELR very often, it's not exactly flush with steam, any reason or has 45337 just moved on ?
