They certainly were.

This was a really cracking day out with 6024. One of my favourite Rail tours ever. A real shame that 6024 is now sitting out of use at Crewe.

It was always good to see the King out on the main line. Hopefully it won't be too long before 6024 is oug of Crewe.

This is an excellent shot with great quality video, especially for 2005!
