Ooh I'm Good!
... The moment I saw the photo in my messages page, and the number, I said to myself... "Tangmere"!
Fantastic shot of a fantastic locomotive!

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!
Yes you're right, she is quite an engine, she will be missed when she comes off the mainline this winter

Overhaul? I'd assume so, must be getting to the end of her current boiler certificate.

Her mainline certificate expires this winter, after that she then has three years keft on her boiler ticket to run on preserved railways.
After the run they've had with her, I'd be surprised if she didn't return to the main line.

She's had an excellent run so far, a very popular engine too, I think a lot of people would be disappointed is she were not to run mainline again!
I know I'd be disappointed!

In a similar style to my previous effort which was considerably better.
I had a better camera, better weather, I was expecting it, I had a bettew spot and I concentrated on the photograph rather than the engine like this time XD

For the strangest reason, this reminds me of the PRR, dunno why. A very good shot. It's good to see steam alive still.
