 my wife took my son to hendon recently and took a photo of him outside smiling away, in the back of the picture ( a bit blurry there is 2 vessels,) i thnk both are RTTL, the wife seems to remember one looks fully preserved and the other is undergoing restoration....

 its free to get in so maybe worth a visit !- its a great museum too!
