My guess is that it went to a paper mill, ran till the boiler failed and then was dumped. There was never any documented proof it was destined...
! Never looked at the date! ah well...
To answer Neil Scott, the reason the L&B is so celebrated is for a variety of factors, not least that it was closed at the very height of its...
