I love the Pannier Tanks !! 5 Stars, Thumbs Up & a Fav !! Are those 3 panniers based there. I have to get to the SVR one day. Although not being able to drive that could be difficult :'(

@whitewingsrich The green one is based at the SVR, 9600 is based at Tyseley Loco works and 9466 at the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre. There are no Panniers currently in service on the SVR (only Prairie Tanks), although one is under overhaul. Also, one is under overhaul at Tyseley Loco works and will be around for the Tyseley open weekend in June in LT red. Thanks for comment and fav!!

as britain goes ALL steam again... i wish :) but unlikley

@BIASpotter It would be nice, but I don't think so.

The Reason the harriers were shouting so much is becvause WE had just scored!!!! I could here the train as well u know !

[MG06ZT]

@KWVRMAD I assume scoring doesn't happen very often then??? lol. If they turned the stand round we could sit and watch the train, just a thought.

[KJamesEvans]

It was something different and we're thankful for that. The platforms were really full, if I remember, and we had to keep normal passengers back so it wasn't too crowded

[MG06ZT]

It did get a bit mad! As you say it was something different, a shame it doesn't happen more often.
