Hi gentleman (Average fan of many things) @xenogenesys.bsky.social <-- Love this idiot

Redcap worked coal trains on her line in Scotland, as her class simply wasn't adept to the high speed, sustained running they were intended for. When sold for preservation, she took a boat to Hull then a barge to Portethwaite, with only half her tender. A new one was built at Portethwaite.
