    Many thanks surprised it hasn't happened for thirty years though,often see Dart valley and Torbay steam specials at Exeter on the way to the west country.

    Think last one thru was Flying Scotsman, but that one stopped. I was there this morning and I have to say she seemed to be towing a bit thru Jumble Lane Crossing although it is a fair incline from old Barnsley Main and she was dragging 10 coaches, none of this namby-pamby 4 or 6 the modern "trains" consist of.
