Steam engine Oliver Cromwell

[TDK]

Saw a steam loco called Oliver Cromwell today at Crewe ETD, anyone know why it is there? I also saw a Duchess class in the Heritage, think it was a duchess

It's doing rounds that way of the world I believe

I know it's going from Poole - Cardiff saturday.

I wouldn't know, it had LMS on the tender so maybe it was Duchess of Sunderland.
