Default Rocket for London?

Yesterday - saw an article in the Metro or Evening Standard that the
NRM are to build a demo. track in Hyde Park for the Rocket replica and
coaches to run on for tourists. Can't find the article now - it was
probably a filler. Anyone got any further details. Thanks - CJB.

The author of that item seems to think that the May Bank Holiday precedes
the 'Easter holidays'.

It does. (see also "The war will be over by Christmas.")

Bit lacking in details of exactly when it'll be happening though.
However I imagine it'll be very popular.
