Dropped this in interchange and not fanning as it is primarily a fairly big news item here in the UK preservation world.

This is LMS Jubilee class 45699 Galaetea, built in 1936, retired and left to rot in 1964, it first ran again in April 2013, and this is its first passenger (albeit a private charter) run on the UK main line.

It should be noted that this locomotive was bought for parts only and it is amazing the amount of work that went into it.
