Tender doesn't have a corridor.

Yes it does (or it did), you can even see it connected to the front coach in the picture.
That is how they did the non - stop runs between London and Edinburgh, crews would take over/be relieved at certain points without stopping (with the unfortunate result being that they all had to travel with the train).

Quite a few of the LNER locos had them and was a very narrow passage down one side of the tender - You didn't want to be fat to go through it though. It compromised water capapacity, yes, but they had things like water troughs to replenish the water on the move too. I also presume they could have brought more coal through from the train if needed, but I imagine it had enough capacity as it was.

@classic33, this isn't an actual picture as such, but here it is illustrated in model form. It ran down the right hand side (starboard).

474..... It is a 747-400, which, like most other of the names (not just Boeing products) is shortened down to just the first two numbers of the plane model and then the first number of the series it is, hence, a 747-400 becomes a 474!
I posted for example, an A346 earlier, which was actually an A340-600.

Simples!:

I was waiting for it all along then missed the opportunity. A quick google of 452 found the rat.

you only had a minute or less. Unless you spent your time hitting f5, you were going to miss out. (forgot to hit 'post" last night)

I know, but I also realised my mistake (whilst I was in the toilet brushing my teeth of all places), which must mean something at least.

Everyone makes mistakes Doug. Not everyone acknowledges them and puts them right - only the good guys do.

In the case of Trump he'd do nothing else tho' would he? If he knew how.....

You'll need good eyes to see the 475
