"did you manage to get to the Great Garratt gathering at the Science and industry museum last year in Manchester? "

Sorry Mark, I didn't get to the Great Garratt gathering, wished I had though. Still I have fired and driven worked on some of the best Garratts in the world.

Syd,
I am green with envy, I am not a railwayman but have fired and driven a black5 a few years ago for a very short experience course.
Cheers
