    Cant find a thread for this, so here goes.

    Today it moved from the NRM to Grantham on the ECML for a static display in a relaid siding at Grantham

    Here is its arrival and positioning

    I thought NRM and WCRC had some agreement to partner...I see it was a DCR 56 doing the move ?

    Indeed. Can't remember the name of the pub nor where it was, but I visited one several years ago where they called time with a chime whistle.
