    I'm sure that if there are to be any other engines other than those currently advertised, they will be announced in due course.

    Silly question - if 49395 is being loaded away to the KWVR for their gala is it being brought back to the Lancs so quickly?? - or straight to Llangollen?

    Let's hope they repair that steam heat valve before she's used again!

    She was failed for that at Bury so I am surprised it was pressed into use at Keighley in these temperatures in that condition.

    Apart from the photo charter freights in the mornings, will freights be working throughout the day?

    Thanks,
