@OutbackStudios  DVD sounds good when will it be released. I've been a fan of 4767 since I was a kid and hope one day to see it back in LMS paint.

Some nice pics there on the black 5. nicely done. We are currently shooting a special interest documentary about 44767 George Stephenson, which is owned by Ian Storey. It is due back in traffic later this year after an overhaul that has taken 6 years. The DVD will chart its history from 1947 to the present day. If you like Black 5s, this may be of interest to you. I look forward to seeing more of your steam videos.
