Oliver Cromwell

70013 Oliver Cromwell came through the woods close to where I live today on its way to Cleethorpes. Its the first time I have seen a steam loco on this line and it was the perfect setting.

Nice video thanks for sharing

Oliver Cromwell is due to pass my farm next saturday morning at 9:00am hauling an excursion from Cleethorpes to Morpeth.
but i understand she broke down yesterday on her way north so we will have to wait and see what we get instead.

You won't get Oliver Cromwell, it failed due to a cracked cylinder, so she'll be out of service for a while!

Well from what I've been told it didn't leave Cleethorpes but it evidently wasn't a cracked cylinder, other wise it wouldn't be running this saturday!

Ah, that's a lot less serious than a cracked cylinder!
