    They were cheap, easy to maintain and reasonably easy to drive and fire ( firing at South Hetton involved chucking another lump of coal in). Very powerful for their size ( was on the footplate at South Hetton while one pushed a loaded MGR + a stalled 37 out of the yard and onto the mainline which was a tad exciting!) They are one of a reasonably small number of industrials preserved in the UK and I don't mind travelling behind them. Some may have actually been a J94 before re-appearing via Hunslet to a coal/industrial user so can be liveried as such. Not all had the bunkers modified by the LNER - but you could do one if so inclined to make it more of a "J94". It would then be more authentic than a certain "A1" travelling the rails in the UK. However there is another side to this -do you include travelling behind the Broad Gauge Hunslet 18"? Ie the GWR Broad Gauge locomotive which was built around a Hunslet 18" boiler from the Wigan area? How authentic is that?
