    The event page now lists Stepney instead of Fenchurch.

    Clan Line awaits the visitors early on Sunday morning and with a 4in scale road steam for company. I'm pleased to say it was a highly successful event with queues for a footplate visit sometimes extending back into the wheel lathe shed. The works management and staff should be commended for what they put on here. It was quite a serious challenge to get the engine serviced and looking decent as it didn't get back to the Lane from the Worcester job until midnight Saturday
