A really pedantic one this time...

"The locomotive found a new home on the Nene Valley Railway, the only UK heritage railway built to continental loading gauge."

Is the NVR definitely the only one with continental loading gauge? I looked up the GCR and the expert opinion seems to be that it isn't actually continental gauge (despite the myth!), but I was just wondering if there's actually a source that states the NVR is the only one. --Danny252 (talk) 09:58, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

No, fair point. I've gone with the wording on Wikipedia (yeah, dangerous I know!) which states that one bridge had to be demolished and some reductions made to the width of platforms to accommodate continental loading gauge. --Robin (talk) 17:09, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
