@Warbonnet Hi Fran, Thank you so much for getting back to me I really appreciate it, That is wonderful news to hear and I am delighted to hear they are still on schedule. Thanks again. 85 Merlin

@Warbonnet Hi Fran, Great news and the coaches look amazing. By any chance is there any updates on the 800 class you can share have they entered production stage? Many thanks, 85 Merlin

Hi everyone, Apologies for tagging @Warbonnet and @BosKonay into this. I do not normally post on here, as it is not really my thing, but I have not heard any news on the mighty 800 class in a little while now, and with three on order I would honestly love to know a bit more :] With the new Hunslet video out today, and Chinese New Year now behind us, I was just wondering if you might be able to give us Irish steam fans a small update when you get the chance. Better still, do we have any idea when we might get our first look at a running sample or perhaps even a sound demo? I was also just wondering if they have entered production yet. Thanks very much as always, and I really appreciate any update you may be able to share. Regards, 85 “Merlin”
