Didn't know you were into trains, Joe. Nest time you are over we'll have to show you Manchester's own 'big boy' - The Beyer Garrett South African GL 4-8-2+2-8-4, made in Manchester, used in SA and now back home. Hell of an Engine! I'm not likely to see the big boy there myself but I would love to travel on one of your trains - Preferably sippin' bourbon in the observation car :-)

Cheers
