Always nice to see a restoration / overhaul reach it's goal. Well done to those concerned.

I have a recollection of a locomotive at Steamtown Carnforth carrying the name "CUB" or "THE CUB". I don't remember much about it because it was largely covered by a sheet. Is this the same machine?

Many Thanks Colin.

That's the one. Having seen that pic I seem to remember it being green with a red stripe.

Cheers
Martin
