Again, nice looking engines that I was always attracted to. The last 7'Midland Simple I saw in steam was working an inspector's saloon on the GC line, and the last of all that I saw in steam (an LMS-built one) was 40634 working a Bournemouth train out of Templecombe on the S & D on a foggy days a few years after the Normans invaded.
