Thank you for the link Minty. Interesting to follow a 'New Build' Project, in comparison to a 'Restoration' (as in the case of 34053 'Sir Keith Park'.

Many thanks Minty for the link to the latest news update on this important 'new build' project.

Mama Wedgy and I have been away for quite a while, so I'm trying hard to catch up with events (as well as dealing with a mountain of e-mails!). The holiday had a 'train' theme to it (now there's a surprise!!!!!!!!) so, when I can, I will try to post some pics.

Thanks for the update Minty. I liked the shot with 'Tornado' in the background. One 'new build' (completed) passing another 'new build' (in progress).
