Still looking for backgrounds B and D. Background to D was mentioned above. Canning Dock - which is in Liverpool just north of the Albert Dock

D could be Canning Town (or it could be Liverpool Street!) D inset is Canning Dock
C inset is Lancaster
A inset is Guidhall Lane in Leicester
So the link is the background matches the station

Dennistoun Burney became famous for complicated solutions to basic engineering problems, Think I know several people who are related to him judging by some of the stuff they come up with!

Although a month late, the dandelion type fluff has been an issue in North Wales for several years. Certainly after the 158s were given a new set of radiators / maintenance about 15 years ago, everything stopped on the Cambrian when it got warm because they got covered in fluff. At the end of May, the NG/G16 I was on looked more like a chicken below the solebar than a steam engine as it was covered in fluff!

Or you could haul it to West Ealing ready for the day's service. Wouldn't that require a unit with a similar coupling etc to do the work? Can't see that being readily available?
