As some of you may have realised by know the A4’s are my favourite steam loconmotives. This year is the 75th anniversary of A4 Mallard setting the world steam speed record and the National Railway Museum is planning a series of events. I plan to be in York for the July celebration when the 5 surviving A4s will all be seen together for the first time ( and possibly the last since one is from the USA and one is from Canada) since they were withdrawn from service.
