As always, please respect the dangers of the railway. Please do not trespass on the railway to see this iconic locomotive – stay to public access spots.
Totally agree.
Seen at Shrewsbury with Alberta’s number, Sierra Leone’s nameplate but in actual fact is Galatea – WHY??
In my humble opinion, temporarily renaming and renumbering locomotives is a completely pointless exercise.
