JORDAN ASHLEY LEEDS Trains go into tunnels and come out but locos can go in sheds and never come out | |

I've just had a look at the pictures - she does indeed look very nice! Congratulations to the ELR on her overhaul. |

Looks excellent, very nice job, its appearance has also been improved no end in the rebuild in my opinion. |

It is good to see the Coronation back up and running, and also good that some of the Dove quirks such as the tender being too tall have been retained, keeping the locos own history intact. Although I am glad to see the back of the plates that stood in for the lining, have these been retained for posterity? I'm glad FWN mentioned there were other Doves still about as I almost asked if this was the only one currently running! Colin |
