The Duchess worked light through Gloucester yesterday. As a "weatherer" it was nice to see a preserved engine just a little bit grimey from hard work....

Absolutely beautiful, used to see these machines in close up at Crewe in the late 50's, early 60's, most were kept in the condition shown🙂, unfortunately some were not, I remember seeing 46234 drawing into the platform and thinking, how could they let an engine out in such a dreadful external condition. Shades of what was to come I guess😪
