Actually a strange move that as I understand that '512 was withdrawn from Polmadie that summer. Perhaps a paperwork mix-up? Davy.

I pondered that but the boiler is conspicuously shorter. Davy.

Well, there's gonna be a bit of 'monkey see, monkey do' now, you know that... Davy

Very nice seeing all these A2/2s here but for me, the main event is going to be the A2/3. Anything on the scuttlebutt about their arrival? I did hear that this week was possible. Davy.
