Does anyone actually know which end was the 'front end'?

Welcome to the forums, Steve!
It sounds like you have personal experience... ?
I got to take lots of pictures of the Middleton's example two years ago but it was in pieces. Good for pictures of the 'engine', but I didn't get to see any controls (which were probably in safe storage somewhere).

Thanks. Not much of an authority on things LNER but I hope I'll make the odd contribution, useful or otherwise.richard wrote:Welcome to the forums, Steve!

Yes, I've been involved with the Middleton Sentinel (aka LNER 59, 8153, BR 68153 and Departmental 54) for far too many years. One day, we'll get around to rebuilding it but it's a fair way off that day, yet. The engine unit is done but the boiler and frames are still to be tackled.richard wrote:
