I've got print number 104/350 of the loco steaming through Doncaster station.

It takes pride in my hallway at home.

The loco was withdrawn in 1960 so I was too young to see it.

I remember listening with envy though, when Scawsby Steve told me he saw it at Doncaster Station just after it was introduced into service in May 1936, on his way to senior school.

Yes, and apparently Wolfie had a similar experience with Stephenson's Rocket.

I've got print 2 of 100 Doncaster Rovers by Richard Green ( Google him Richard Green Footballers)

Was 25 quid a few years back and if you go in BVB I donated one and you can see how good it is. Should have a Copps signed Captains armband with it as well

Bet you wish you had one of these babies, Wolfie!
