Even quicker when they fired up 31454!!
Although 33103 was worth it alone, the twisted firestarter never fails to impress

No, 410 was setting fire alarms off in London that day on the Buffer Puffer 4.0

I was. With several cans of Guinness..
Yes looking forward to that coming back.
I really do hope it does. My first and last tractor of 2007.
(Yes I had it more than once for you wise cracks.

Same pretty much, from healthy(ish) to staggering at 25mph down the MML. So many memories.

My favourite thrash wise was the December 1st one but if that hadn't have happened would have been the Cambrian in May, top thrash throughout and complete on train riot!
Slipping out of many stops on The Eastbourne flyer, it really did struggle (downhill!!)
Though yes, the 1st was just immense.

It seems Spitfire have made a statement that there will no longer be a grid hauling this one it will be a pair of 37s.It looks like they had tried everything in their power to secure the grid even going as far as to subhire a DRS 66 to cover the Grids duties (has a tour operator ever gone this far to try and deliver the advertised traction?) but problems found during the Grids exam have scuppered their plans.Top marks for effort

Cue mass flapping on the part of Mr 37412 and a few others! 
And purely on a selfish note, no chance of my signature having to be changed either!
