"has just had a heavy boiler and mechanical overhaul lasting just over 5½ years." - reading this article from cold, it seems to me that this could be worded in a different way to indicate when the activity took place?

::{{reply to|Redrose64}} Thanks. I have removed the mentions from the article. Would the info in the blog be coming from RCTS sources, do you think? <span class="nowrap">] <sup>]</sup><sub>]</sub></span> 18:55, 29 May 2024 (UTC) |
