Tangledwood, I bet Caley 123 was spotted by you when the loco hauled the "Blue Belle" railtour in 1963, double headed with LSWR "T9" no. 120. See photo link..... http://gallery62603.fotopic.net/p11395725.html I remember seeing photos and reports at the time but only started going on special trains in 1964. First one was behind A3 60051 "Blink Bonny" no less, on an LCGB special to Crewe, saw the surviving Duchesses and photted them - with a Brownie 127. There I told you, a gricer must have total recall of all useless facts!
