Quite often come over the A66 to photograph on the S&C AND WCML and that replica summit sign they have erected up there really brings it home how remote this line was,and an important link which should still be there today like many others. Just had a look at the video ,well done Matt and the team really bringing the old Stainmore back to life and the Mogul looks great ,just cant wait.

PS I bet the folk up at Kirkby Stephen East would be interested in following your project lads.

I'm so glad SSS are making a flying pig, I ride behind 43106 a lot on the SVR. On the stainmore would the 4MT 2-6-0(NOT FYLING PIGS!!) perform better than the 4MT 4-6-0?
