or, “the little wheelbase that could...”

This is my latest MOC steam locomotive, a 4-6-2 Coronation class in the maroon livery of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. This is number 6233, “Duchess of Sutherland”.

Click for gallery:
6233 Duchess of Sutherland

Until the gallery is moderated, here are two deep links:
1.6233 Front/side 2.6233 Rear/side

Here’s the wheelbase I demonstrated earlier. It occupies a whole 90° curve:
6233 Wheelbase

And here’s a Google search for reference images: Google search: “6233 duchess”

Now, I notice a few stray images have crept in there caused by Google mis-appropriating the captions. The GWR 0-6-0, pair of stinky diesels and a real Duchess one might expect, but Mick Hucknall’s ginger mug on that last page?!?!? Okay, there’s something very weird going on if you follow the link. And after I made sure ‘safe search’ was ‘on’ too...!
