That`s a great story and I wish Mr. Yeowart all the best with his new railway company, we could do with more people like him.

Good luck to him. I wonder how he'll cope with the 'Safety Talliban' and all the beaurocratic red tape that the modern railway entails :rolleyes:

Just watched the programme and it was very interesting. 43067 looked well in the new company logo, but I think they still have a long way to go. Good luck to Grand Central.

I hope that he has a few friendly 'Thunderbird' suppliers because I cant see GNER giving him a hand when his motive power throws a wobbly

Yes, GNER certainly has "issues" with GC :eek:
