really not a fan of skips, give me the duffs anyday! however just to prove a little useful 67029 (the silver one) is the official stand by loco for the royal train (I think it has a plaque to that effect on it now) just like there was an ews 47 (named windsor castle) standby when they were doing it. its something I think ews insist on having because I don't remember BR having official standbys, perhaps its a way of justifying the locos staying in service beyond there lifespan.
