Heavyweight LMS Pacific Locomotive No.6233 'Duchess of Sutherland' in the naughty corner at Norwich. 08 09 2019

The locomotive was booked for a tour from Norwich to Chester. Unfortunately, the inside valve spindle bush was found siezed to the valve spindle and the locomotive had to be declared a failure.

 

The fault was repaired relatively quickly, but obviously not in time to head the planned tour. Instead this was powered by a diesel locomotive - 47802 throughout.
