Bit of an odd one, but I've been onto Yorks train museum web site, but it doesn't seem to be fully operational. As I'm trying to find out if the Mallard 75 exhibition, as in all six A6 trains are still on display ?
I know it's a bit sad but some serious engineering all under 1 shed *happy*

Doesn't matter, go anyway it's fantastic. Especially the machine shops where they repair/restore the trains.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Betwix Harrogate and York

Simple answer is no. All 6 are no longer at the museum.

But they will return in september.

I walk past the museum every day, but failed to pop in to see all six.

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol
