An interesting visitor to the Strathspey Steam Railway is the Great Western "City of Truro" (No 3440). One of the first 100mph steam locomotives built in 1903 at GWR`s Swindon works for the London to Plymouth and south west England traffic. She is delighting the public and enthusiasts at a more leisurly 25mph on the Aviemore to Broomhill run daily for the rest of this month (Aug 2006). Broomhill was "Glenbogle" in the "Monarch of the Glen" TV series. Edit : sorry I cant get a pic to download, maybe too big.
