Is it true that all six will be on view again at Shildon, sometime in February 2014? A friend of mine said so, but I can't find anything on the web at the moment.

And it appears that the two ex-pats will appear at Barrow Hill 8/9 Feb if that is a preferable venue for some - they'll probably have the company of a rather nice LNER layout-in-the-making running the full class of A4s in model form throughout the weekend.

Thanks Bryan - I must be blind! I suppose mid-week would be the time to go or is the great farewell timed for the half-term holidays?

No.7 is undergoing winter maintenance in the 'Nissen Hut' at Grosmont, so not really accessible at present.
