@redhouseguitar Yes, it was stuck open. 43106 was in a very run-down condition at the time. After this run, 43106 didn't steam again until August 2009.
I'm really looking forward to seeing 43106 back in steam again.
I can remember the Ivatt 4mt's working the old M&GN in Norfolk prior to its demise in 1959. For that reason I have a particular fondness for the class, my wish being that someday 43106 will return briefly to the region where she first entered service. Many thanks :-)
cool i like the halls and all the ivatts 43106 rocks it'll be good to see her return to steam either this year or next but anyway i hope to be getting a 00-gauge replica of 43106 soon cool vid

Hi shez5690,
I was just wondering wether you knew if No:43106 was even mainline certified? Great video

Hi, yes 43106 was main line certified in the early 1980's.
It ran a few times on the main line between 1980 and 1983, on its own and double-heading with 80079 and 7812 Erlestoke Manor.
Thanks very much for your comment.
