That's why a true railfan always keeps close tabs on the timetables. :lol:

In America, we'd refer to her as a 4-6-2 — or "Pacific" — steam loco.
But regardless, she's still a very pretty one.

And is that still a link-and-pin coupler on the front?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
