Duchess is out until the new year with a TPWS issue that needs specialist input to fix according to the details on National Preservation. It is hoped that 60009 will be fixed in time to operate the tour.
Edit latest update says OMTR, so either way it is some part of the modern kit on the loco.

Cheers - the pan was a bit wobbly - trying out a new monopod and it's a steep learning curve
