Skegnss proved to be a bracing day out for the NRM's 'Britannia' No. 70013 Oliver Cromwell on the April 9 'Jolly Fisherman'train from King's Cross to Skegness. A small firebox leak developed on one of the lap seams that had been repaired at Crewe over the winter. Rather than risk seriously damaging the engine, pressure was kept below 175psi for the return journey to King's Cross as part of the consist, meaning that this leg of the service was hauled by West Coast Class 37 No. 37676, which had been left on the end of the 575-ton train as an insurance policy.
