Hi Vince,
I went to the Preston services open day sunday and saw the Dreamland steam engine "Billie" Now painted red I think its colour was green at Dreamland,Needs alot of work to get it back to full working again.

Hi Alan,

I saw it in the flesh too, at the steam rally which was held last summer.

I told my wife that I thought it would look good in our lounge but she did not agree.

As you say, it is in need of a lot of work. Hopefully, it will be restored sometime though.

I wonder how much they want for it? (Says he, rummaging through the kids` piggy banks)
