    I couldn't find anything about this elsewhere on the forum (apologies for repeating this if it has appeared already) but I thought it was rather pleasing news for both the owners of 44422 and the WSR. An agreement has been reached that will see 4F 44422 based on the WSR for 25 years from 2016. I think she will be ideally suited to the line. She will arrive after her overhaul at Crewe has been finished and it is hoped she will be ready to take part in an S & D Gala in March 2016.

    To be fair it did get buried pretty quickly, as do most things on that thread not on the subject of the WSRA and problems!
