    First time I saw the Gresley in action was at Shildon 2013. I entered the site at the opposite end to the museum, down a back alley, and it drove past right in front of me. My legs went to jelly like I had just bumped into the Beatles! 👏👏👏

    What a dreadful shame to see a magnificent machine limited to shunting speeds. I hope it gets out on the main lines soon.

      oh yes, a shame to see a recently overhauled machine being worn in slowly without risk of damage. You're a fool.

    Nigel looks great, I'm glad to see Nigel back in working order but I definitely do think he looks better in his dark green livery.

    Should I feel guilty for missing and unable to see the Mallard A4 anniversary events in 2013 and 2014 because of a lot of family and job commitments, my graduation in Southampton and a art exhibition in London and I live too far away from York and Durham? I do not visit York every year! I had to build up money and visited Montreal Canada 🇨🇦 to see 4489 Dominion and visited Green Bay via Chicago in the USA 🇺🇸 to see 60008 Dwight D Eisenhower. I never seen them in 13 and 14!.

      Wonderful to see 4498 on the cabside and the magical 'LNER' on the tender. Even wartime black is better than any of the BR liveries. Obviously Garter Blue (with valances) tops the list though 🙂
