@dm3830 There's "preserved" and "preserved". City of Birmingham is not in running order. I suppose you could say she's preserved in aspic. I'm also a bit mystified why you're in Australia "for God's sake". Are you a minister or something?

[dm3830]

FFS! The "two" preserved Coronation class? What about 6235? City of Birmingham ring any bells? I'm in Australia for Gods sake and even I have seen her and remember her. Fix the title please mate.

I suppose in a way I partially to blame for the re-streamlining of 6229 as I located and supplied to all two pre-war colour images of the streamlined "Coronation Scott" #6229 at the New York World's Fair of 1939 and 1940. I have been told the discovery of those images added some impetus to that pursuit of re-streamlining. Anyone care to exonerate me?
