35028 Clan Line- hiding in Sheffield

[unlevel42]

35028 Clan Line arrived in Sheffield on Wednesday- I thought it might be to do with the 100 years of stainless steel/Harry Brearley celebrations at SMACC.
The conference is over and its still pootling about today.
Why is it here? What is it doing? When is it leaving?
