On August 21, the boiler for LNER‘A2’No. 60532 Blue Peter reached a significant milestone in its overhaul, with the boiler successfully passing a hydraulic test at Locomotive Services Group’s Crewe works. Test pressure was taken up to 340psi, and the successful test effectively ‘starts the clock’ on the life of the new boiler ticket. Two days later saw the first fire lit in the locomotive’s boiler in 21 years. LSG
