• The above sequence of captured mini-DV stills shows Sir Nigel Gresley's Class A4 Pacific 60009 'Union of South Africa' emerging from a curtain of steam as it hauls the VSOE Pullman stock through Clapham Junction Station on Saturday 19th April 2003. The Southern Railway discs betray this as alien territory for a member of this famous L.N.E.R. Class. Sadly it is not possible to recreate the haunting sound of the locomotive's chime whistle here.

• It should be noted that preserved locomotives undergo significant periods of inactivity for maintenance and the appearance of photographs of any particular example on these pages does not necessarily mean that it is currently operational. Newly restored locomotives may be used as replacements, locations or ownerships may change and if a locomotive undergoes a heavy overhaul it may be out of action for several years. This process is immensely expensive and labour-intensive and preserved railways always require significant financial assistance from visitors and benefactors, so any contributions towards the uptake of these marvellous machines will always be welcomed by their owners.
