Good morning Staircase,
I am not really sure what happened to the Halifax, the original agreement was that Hercules that I offered to loan them would be fitted I think to No 1 Engine position, so it would be able to be started to allow visitors to see and hear what things were like during the Wartime effort by our fore fathers, Sadly I was mega busy but the YAM never kept me up to date on any happenings, eventually when I heard whispers about odd things happening and after making first contact again, I was fed with what could only be said to be utter lies.
Sadly deceit is not something one would expect from any Museum especially when it involves such rare and still in good order machinery, that now is history and a lesson learned,..Saturday awaits and the sound of a Bristol Hercules will again be heard in the Vale Of York
for those with interest in this take a peek at
Bristol Hercules Rebuild
