    Or, if BR Black suits you better, then from my own personal stable (the one on the left, not the 0-6-2T on the right):........wish I still had it, a real classic.

    IIRC one of the mags reported running in to be at a line nearer to Crewe so the guys that have done the work can supervise the testing more readily I suppose.

    It was, but in the real world a comment like that would be followed by a slap on the back and the offer of a pint...;)

    Royal Scot is air braked. When overhauled at southall they cut one of the frame stretchers and put it there. Crewe have since changed this and it is now on the front left hand side just in front of the cylinder and goes up with a slight cut out of the smoke deflector. So doesnt look too bad to be honest.
