Description
LNER A4 60009 'Union South Africa' makes what is likely her final appearance on the mainline for the foreseeable future, having come to the end of her mainline ticket earlier this year. The A4 was dragged to the East Lancashire Railway by West Coast Railways 37706 from the Railway Museum in York, where 60009 has been sat since March. The loco was due to move to the East Lancs much sooner, but due to lockdown restrictions in the UK, this was unable to occur as planned. 60009 'Union of South Africa' will carry out the rest of her boiler ticket at the East Lancashire Railway, before being retired from steam long term, as per the request of the locomotive's current owner, John Cameron.
