Excellent series, you Limeys have beautifully restored steamers, lots over here also, but don’t run them too often, the bastards! Thanks for the explanation of the chain driven valve gear, didn’t really sound like a good idea from the get-go, looks like alot were converted to conventional workings. Jolly good show from Albion, Pennsylvania!

A great loco can't wait to see her back. And in great shape. I'm sure she will be Another great Ropley/ Eastleagh overhaul

TOPS was introduced on BR in 1972 after being given Govt approval in 1971. Initially it covered only locos, freight & parcels stock. Passenger stock was brought on line with a different system some time later.

Somehow I think that 34007 was not a TOPS number given TOPS was a 1970s invention...

[@bryjan51]

Yes, steam engines were number according to there region.

[@JakeyG-eq1un]

TOPS was introduced for steam locos in the 50s/60s. It was used on diesels in the 70s.

[@nick33006]

Are you forbidden to mention 34105 then?

[@kristoffermangila]

TOPS is not a British invention, but rather American. Guess which American railroad developed it?
