Peacefully resting in the shade, 3117 has been moved up and down the tracks adjacent to the coal stage, for loosening up trials. The lubricator has been set quite fast, and now its time for the motion to get the potion!

Backing down into our shed area, 3117 passes class 24 3664, as she rests on the pit. The 15F was trundling around for lubrication tests

Spikkels gets a piece of his pie that he has just warmed up on the flameplate of 15F 3117. It looks very greasy!
