"Dominion of New Zealand" vs "City of Stoke on Trent" in my reckoning. D of NZ gets it by a short buffer! :lol:

The best I could think of (whilst not trying too hard) was "Princess Arthur of Connaught" (from the LMS :oops: ) at 25 letters.

What is (or was) the longest name carried by a loco?

Ignoring foreigners, I'm still going for 60835 - unless more recently someone has paid for a longer one to appear on a box.
