@AndreiTupolev Hi. Whilst we were there, we heard a discussion that the cab had been reduced by approximately 6 inches. It looked difficult to shovel the coal into the firebox.
@mollsmyre Hi, Tommy. It was like a scene from Thomas The Tank Engine stories where Henry wouldn't come out of the tunnel, but in this case, it was the Y7 that looked like it didn't want to come out.
@LiveSteamFanatic Hi, thanks for the comment. It did look superb. It sounded like they have a few teething problems to solve but it should be OK soon.
@monopodman. yeah the cab has been shortened to its original size, the extra length was added to it some point since it was first built

Not much room in that cab. Looks like they have to heap the coal in the corner.
