Oooh oooh I'll bite! It's obviously the good old SR! Why? Because GWR, LMS and LNER have their own fans who think theirs is the best. SR gets left out in the cold and therefore it's the best. Oh and the fact some of their locos were built in Brighton and that has to count for something.

Oh, it'd have to be on a Southern loco too!

Thanks for the offer Kent Seagull, I'd be up for that.

Of course you can't go wrong with the world record holder when it comes to speed but i think i'm right that the last British steam loco to break the 100 mph barrier was a Battle of Britain class loco in the mid 60's. Oops, close but no cigar, it was a merchant navy which last broke the 100 mph...

I think 60163 Tornado could give Bittern a run for her money. 34067 Tangmere would be ex-Southern loco's best shot.
