Hadn't realised she'd left the R&ER - glad she's got a more appropriate home where she can be made better use of, and is back in steam!

Such a gorgeous little loco! 🥺It’s definitely on my bucket list to come see her. One day!

I saw this train last week when I visited cclr. An amazing locomotive. Love the story. :-)

It sure is!

What a charming story! Excellent video. I usually find music added to railway videos distracting, but this soft piano was the perfect choice and actually enhanced the narration. Her story reminds me of the faithful old wood axe: "It has had two new handles, and three new blades, but it is the longest enduring axe I ever bought!" : )

There's so much history to these locos , you've done a great job finding it all out Dylan . Thank you for such an informative film . 😉

Having seen her working at the R & E Rly long ago in the past. It was nice to hear her history. Plus she looks nicer as a tender engine. A visit to Cleethorpes to she her I think is a must.

When will the extention be revitalized?

@TheHoveHeretic Месяц назад

Really enjoyable. Pretty much the entire clip was news to me, so many thanks. 👍

I think a small plack should be put on the engine about the man who saved her

I always feel uneasy about the readiness to mutilate narrow-gauge engines, completely disregarding their history.

@donsharpe5786 Месяц назад

What sort of valve gear did you say she had after the removal of Stephenson Link?

@CleethorpesCoastLightRailway Месяц назад

Southern valve gear

@CleethorpesCoastLightRailway 18 дней назад
