I took my firing test on 90775 many years ago on the NYMR when she was there. A fine engine, and I trust she will return sooner rather than later.

yeh the ticket would've expired in 2011.
Someone told me the estimated cost of the WDs overhaull will cost £300,000 so it looks like it'll be out of action for some time!

Hope the NNR can raise sufficient funds for the work to be carried out as it seems extensive. Ian Riley's workshops in Bury would be an answer if Weybourne works are unable to do the work as the B12 is already there.

The boiler inspector failed the test, I think about two years earlier before its overhaul.
