Hi Rob see my photos in the History Past and Present thread. What condition is 82045 in? We passed a large low-loader on the way to SVR which was carrying a very large wheel set but I couldn't see the configuration.

Seen your photos and commented on them. My topic on 82045 is in a separate topic on here. The October update is live on the website (http://www.82045.org.uk/82045_news.html). The frames are at Bridgnorth, awaiting movement into the workshop for rivetting work. Cylinders will be fitted late 2012, followed by the wheels, which we are looking for money to pay for the patterns, casting and machining. Next thing after that will be the brand new boiler and firebox. I will see if I can find out what may have left the railway recently.

Edit: Loco 7802 (less boiler & tender) delivered to Tyseley Locomotive Works today for overhaul with estimated completion & return late spring 2012. The boiler remains at Bridgnorth for stripping of tubes & inspection to detemine the necessary repairs. Off site overhaul of the various boiler fittings for this loco is underway.

This above information came from a post on National Preservation website. The locomotive is a 4-6-0
(Same locomotive to 7828 as seen in http://www.flickr.com/photos/16521384@N ... 816919330/)

Getting a break in the weather this morning, dry roads, a high speed dash around the Lincolnshire Wolds on this:

then drop by Willingham Woods at Market Rasen for a cuppa and burger, then another dash back to the Italia Moto bike shop at Lincoln to talk bull***t with the lads. A mint way to spend the last day before tax runs out and the bike goes to bed till April. Lovely, motoring sex for one :ymblushing: :ymblushing: :ymdevil:
