L0L...You mean there *Actually* going to come and get that dam thing at last, after all the years, its been sitting in the museum up here. Oh well, out with the pick-axes again (to dig out the flangeways, so it can be moved out of the No.1 road). Wonder if the Garrat still moves, (it's parked in front of AB91). Sounds Like a great trip though. Just 1 though, how they going to move it past 'Joppa Junction', since it *is* a wooden body carriage, as far as I know they can't be run on the main south???
