  • I'm personally quite amazingly outstandingly easily certain that Sir Herbert Nigel Gresley who was basically the Chief Mechanical Engineer of the L N E R along with your own other 1920s built in Doncaster brother known as Gordon the Big L N E R class A0 pacific type of steam-driven railway tender locomotive are basically BOTH very proud of you, and especially as Tornado along with his own official builder officially simply known as Arthur Peppercorn who was basically considered to be Sir Herbert Nigel Gresley's own completely obviously official successor certainly would BASICALLY ALSO DEFINITELY be exactly 100% very proud!

    That green colour is great on him and I do mean him! I know it's traditional to refer to many things as she but this locomotives name has a masculine origin and more to the point I believe that his name should be acknowledged as a tribute to Scots man Nigel Gresley. That should be official! And for the record calling him Scott has nothing to do with Thomas! He's been called Scott since he was first named!!!!
