BA€€t€€rd! Wish it was mine, Went to Durham camera in hand to find it retimed and missed it!

You must be a covenantor then? or one of the lucky (rich) few.

Would love to go on the Pullman from Darlo but at £450.....

I know its inefficient, old fashioned and lots of other things .......

but I think its fantastic. The design, looks, sound, smell and the fact people actually did it (got it made).

Makes me proud to be British.

Jammy Git! Hope it doesn't get cancelled due to the weather like every other means of transport in London.

nice, so nice in fact i nearly went out to spot it when it was on its mainline tests.

that would be absolutely awesome doing a proper distance with it. Would love to be in the cab though, wonder how long you need to graft at a heritage place before they let you take one out!
