oh cheer's thanx, £230 odd quid down the drain gang up on me they are rumours RUMOURS
that little im close to a few workers there was a little tongue in cheek, i actually only really know the guys i worked with and the ones on here.
None of the info was actually off the SVR.
Why dont you speak to Mr Guntrip or Martin Walker they may confirm anything about a deltic being there.
"Were there's a Deltic there is a Guntrip" very rarley see him at the SVR otherwise.
