    Sadly I have to report it isn’t the Ivatt. The grate fell in just before we were due off shed (cast rocking grate and the back section broke in three). So, to start with until we know what the rail conditions are like, it will be D8059 on the the rear. :(

    Tom, yes, I've just started to think that too! Never mind, I'm always open for a bit of humour - my species of dinosaur are known for that.

    Oh dear. The cash comes into one pocket and almost immediately goes out again from the other pocket. :(

    I just hope that 41312 can be sorted and got back into service soon. As I think that leaves just 35005 and 30506 now available for hauling normal service trains.

    Oops. My original comment was aimed at Ploughman but I managed to get the wording totally wrong. Later comments were aimed at The Gricing Owl not realising my original error.
    I’ll crawl back into my hole now.
