The A4 'Sir Nigel Gresley' is now in the workshop at NRM for its ten year boiler overhaul. This is it... admittedly it doesn't look much like it but I am assured that it really is 60007. And one of her predecessors from the East Coast Main line, the Stirling single complete with its new tender.
I'd not call them 'pretty' but they do have some style to them. WIll these now replace the class 20s?
ReplyDeleteNo-one seems sure what DRS are going to use them for although some have appeared on container trains in Scotland. Chiltern Trains are having some painted in their silver livery for use on their loco and Mk3 sets on the Marylebone to Birmingham service.
DeleteBut as for replacing the class 20s.... never.
