Yep.
She's basically ready now. We just have a few minor issues to sort out. She'll be back out soon. Don't expect her to be out on a regular basis though, we are trying to reduce here time in traffic to special occasions only.

Is there a date for a trip on the cards, or not yet?

Any chance that 1210 could still make the od visit to the Festival of Steam at RTM?

That would be up to the RTM to approach the society, however my personal opinion is that it would be highly unlikely for a number of reasons.

It was at the Festival Of Steam during 2006, and triple headed with 2705 and 3112 on a replica mixed goods. Plenty of smoke
I have photos, but can't post them as they were not taken using a digital camera (won't make the same mistake this time)

Why would this be so? I thought the RTM and the ARHS got along quite well together, although I'm willing to be corrected.
