64203 is coupled to one of Ivatt?s earliest tender designs, built in 1897 for 2-4-0 passenger engines Nos.1062-1069. Note the GNR point levers with their big cast counterweight, and of course the A4!

Tony Roberts recalls that the weighted cast point levers were sat upon in operation, springing back when you stood up pushing the point blades back to their normal position.
