I was thinking of those, but didn't know what had become of them. As for Hartland, @Steve has told that there are fears the family that own it will look to sell once is is completed - but I can't see the NYMR being in a position to buy it, so...

To be fair, it's only recently that having an oil-fired loco has been seriously considered at all, as fire risk periods have become more prevalent and longer-lasting and to a certain degree virtually every other Whitby service could be hauled by...

I don't think there's a problem with Repton or it's reliability normally, normally when it struggles is when rail conditions are poor, and even Black 5s have been known to slip to a stand on occasion under such conditions. I don't believe it is...

That's a shame, but as I pointed out, it's not the overall cost of doing 133 but the difference in cost between restoring it and the worst of the Garratts - and the possible difference in running costs thereafter ~ or, are there any NG15sstill...

I wonder if, at some point in the future, it will be seen as more cost-effective to restore the second example, rather than overhaul one of the Garratts? There's a lot less bits to maintain, and given the cost of tyres, for example, the savings...
