Fourteen years ago

Whilst randomly sorting through photos for an upcoming event, this jumped out at me.


Fourteen years ago, on 16 April 2009, the unique Napier T9-29 'Baby' Deltic engine was installed to 37372. At the time the loco was to serve only as a test bed for the power unit with no thoughts at all about what we would do once it was up and running.

I think we've come some way, don't you?
