Thanks! - It was my first attempt at using Windows Movie Maker - it was also my last as I had to convert Quicktime files with loss of quality, first. Funny what train movements you can stumble across when walking the dog!

she used to be my beast! i remember her getting withdrawn,i think it was a flashover, but 20 years on? i must make the effort to go see her! it seems like yesterday we had 25's 40's 45's 46's and the rest on everyday services! where has the time gone? rob

Hi rob, The Northampton & Lamport Railway web site has some details about the engine, which has been in Northampton for almost 20 years! Cheers! Mike

It's about 1 mile - hoping to grow to about seven miles. The trackbed of the old Northampton to Market Harborough line has been converted into a cycle track. They have a web site which explains all

Sorry, only just noticed your post.. As you say, the real positive is that the blowtorch didn't get her! Not sure how much she is used now. Mike
