The A4 models were quite the series. They can excel up to 125 mph.

I thought it particularly poignant, and a nice touch, that SNG is on the same road that Sir Ralph Wedgewood was destroyed on in 1942. Seems 'right', somehow, to acknowledge the member of the class cut down so early in such a manner.

Great photos by the way!

Thanks I think some of her tender axle boxes came from the one towed by Wedgwood
