One great sign they used to have was Caution Steam Brakes decades before Jags had a similar warning badge.

Some black and yellow stickers would break it up a bit.

That's true, I'm guessing it predates the requirement for red reflective triangles and yellow/amber striped reflective bars?

Linking old and new technology, that same bumper sticker could also be fitted to EV's.

Steam test today and probably the only time the pair of them have been steamed together. It's also the last time the S will be steamed because it is now ready to be collected. Absolutely fucking baltic this morning.
You need to be a bit careful firing Sentinels until there is enough steam to get the blower on. Ignore the shitty mess around the superheater tail. That is a work in progress.
And job done. There is water everywhere because they are getting drained down for winter. It's better to do it from hot so things dry out. S is probably going next week.
