I'm a 'Duchess', get me out of here'

            No better sight that a 'Duchess' in full flight, as evidenced at Abergele on 10th August 2010, as No. 6233 'Duchess of Sutherland' gives the cars on the A55 a good run for their money while heading the returning Railway Touring Company's 'North Wales Coast Express', 1Z34 1745 Holyhead - Liverpool Lime Street'. In the background (left) is Gwrych Castle, a grade 2 listed 19th century country house, which hosted the 2020 version of ITV's 'I'm a celebrity, get me out of here', filmed in the uk instead of Australia due to the covid pandemic.
