    Congrats on the promotion , you deserve it , you will be great in your new position , being prepared to get into your overalls and get dirtyfixing things , Piglet you have a very good way of explaining complicated things simply , which usually avoids that famous childhood question "why?" . Is 9f ticketed for mainline steam ? If so that must be a treat to use to Whitby and back . If not , what would be the imedment on such a good engine for that job .

    Nice video Piglet. As an apprentice at North Rd Darlington I got the tail end of steam and loved the 9F which I "drove" a few yards to reposition the rods once when in the Light repair Team at Green street sheds ? still arailwayman at heart.

    Great to see another Black 5 coming back!!! 😍 44806 will be lie a brand new engine when she's completed, just like 92134 was 3 years ago! I'm surprised at the 9F needing new tyres so soon after restoration! Are the existing ones her original BR tyres? I know she didn't see many years with BR before being sent to Barry Scrapyard. I remember the only time I've seen her, back in 2019 at the Autumn Steam Gala, and although standing on Grosmont station, I felt her slip! 😍😍😍 I accidentally commented in my own video *_"I felt that!!!"_*

    Hey Piglet, I live just down the road from the village of Hartland in Devon (infact my M+D live there) Can you tell me how the steam engine (there was also a navel ship) got its name, There was as far as I know no railway to Hartland but a secret RAF base ?? , I'm popping to Hartland village at the weekend as its my Dads birthday and my daughter is coming down from Swindon, I mean why would you want to live in Swindon...(I did live there in a golf ball shot of the works LOL) Great Video and I would love to learn more about Hartland "the train" as it is a 10 mins drive to the village in Devon from here. Thank You Piglet for sharing your day with us !
