I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior. If you do too and aren't scared to admit it, then copy and paste this in your signature. <center>

Great photograph of, if not the, then one of my favourite engines! Wish it'd come down south though :P

Thanks a lot :)
Maybe she will one day but she seems to be cursed in failing whenever she strays too far from her home shed at Bury :p

It's a great photo! I've just seen her today at Llandudno Junction, but it's not the most inspiring place for photos, especially with all the ugly little children and waddling tourists. You've got a wonderful atmosphere in this - apart from the architecture in the background it could be from the real age of steam!
