Village Red - Again

In 2010 I grew a self sown tomato plant, which was a sport from a yellow tomato I grew for someone in Canada. I tried growing it for a few years, but got some real mongrel fruit, so I gave up on it.
This year, I'm back trialing it again, with four seedlings from the original plant, of which I'll pick one and see what I get. After the first planting, I got a heart tomato, so I should get a heart tomato again this time. Here's a couple of babies from seed saved in 2011/12 seed save and still viable after 7 years.
