You beat me to it Mr G!

Given that the restoration took ten years and cost well in excess of £4 million ($5.6m+) you can only speculate as to how much of the original engine is left.
I think that they must go by the principle that if the name plate is original, then it doesn't matter what else you weld, bolt, rivet or otherwise attach to it.

I mustn't be churlish; it's great to see it under steam again.

Funicular, not lenticular.

Yes, I was checking to see if you were paying attention... that's my story and I'm sticking to it... unless of course someone questions it, then I'll come up with a new one.

BigV · 03-02-2016, 06:43 PM

Heh.

I try to pay attention.

xoxoxoBruce · 03-03-2016, 10:09 PM

I guess this one is sort of a dirty kind.

xoxoxoBruce · 03-04-2016, 04:53 PM

Line 'em up... impress the press.

I don't know if I'd want them to go carefully slow, or get out of here fast.
