THE internet was alive with speculation during August after a mysterious 4-6-2 bearing an uncanny resemblance to a British Railways 'Britannia' Pacific appeared on the Great Central Railway (GCR) for testing.
So striking was the locomotive's likeness to a 'Britannia'that enthusiasts questioned whether the black-liveried 4-6-2 was in fact No. 70000 Britannia or No. 70013 O/iverCromwellin disguise.
