    Interesting story on the 5305LA website that, when it returns to main line duties in May, Oliver Cromwell may have to carry a different number due to clashes/confusion with Freightliner class No 70013.

    Of course, I'm sure that today's date has nothing to do with this....

    Nice one boys, all the same.

    Kind of you to say. The 'Pip Dunn headboard auction' is categorically not a spoof though!

    I guess Tornado has the same problem, and most of the preserved A4s, flying Scotsman.

    I heard it is going to be used with DBS in 2014 and has been allocated a number associated with German practice, its new number is 01-4201-4.
    Red wheels comes next.

    Haven't seen this one mentioned yet, only as a cached copy now, it was removed from the tornado website about midday.
