Description Here sharing the spoiling with Flying Scotsman are three known engines lined up together in an impressive photo shoot which are Burton Agnes Hall, Drysllwyn Castle and King Edward II. There were other GWR engines there mostly on display or undergoing overhauls.

Nice shot.  Also, do you have any updates regarding 2999 "Lady of Legend"?

As of late 2009, most of the conversion work has been completed and work has started on restoring the boiler. Meanwhile, a dedicated group of volunteers is continuing the refurbishment of the components rescued from Maindy Hall and it should be in steam in the not too distant future

Thanks, mate.  The reason I asked is because Jim van der Kolk mentioned it in Part 2 of his "Top 20 Extinct U.K. and U.S. steam locomotives" during the segment about the extinct GWR Granges, Counties, and Saints.
