WEell I didn't clean the grate, drop the ashpan, light it up on Friday afternoon and fill the sandpots and assist in oiling it in the morning for nothing mate.......:wink:

Taw Valley has a slight leak in one of its cylinders, so it is unsuitable for the mainline, but OK for the SVR so it is earning its worth until it has an available slot in the works in September for a full 10 yearly.

You can take that info from a reliable source :wink: .
