Pleasant trot through the countryside this morning and saw this in the “ to be refurbished” area.

I know what you mean. I was surprised I have to say. They use it on their “Thomas Days’ which are limited otherwise they have to pay royalties. Very nice heritage railway, wonderfully painted platform areas etc. and so perfectly maintained and you would think the coaches had just come into service. Beautifully restored. Lovely morning.
