    Having dealt with WC , they are much better than many give them credit for . They were very helping in moving no.9 to Shildon when 8 &10 first arrived from North America . For many years their endeavours on the west highland steam bashes were very much appreciated .

    The main line scene has been much richer and continues to be so and whilst we may not like decisions made, they more than anyone will understand the operating landscape, what can be done within the parameters sets and what can be invested

    given it was suggested to be in Scotland about now, it feels a little way away currently

    Sorry, but if that is the case it is a very strange decision and will likely prevent it's return to Fort William, barring some miracle (where it has earnt NELPG a lot of £).

    to be fair and I have had this discussion with other loco owners , we are in the preservation business and the fitment of additional kit an engine was never originally fitted with can be brutal on what can be unique locomotives . ERTMS is a case in point and I suspect may yet cause a lot of engines to drop off the mainline

    62005 may earn lots of money at the Fort , but that is more than easily spent keeping it in good order season after season
