    We currently have 08742 at Didcot Railway Centre.
    As I know there are peeps out there that like to get haulage behind rare traction, would there be any interest in us setting up a weekend after the main summer season to clock up some mileage with this rare beastie?
    Although it still has two vacuum exhausters, they are currently disconnected and pipe work, contactors are missing, so we would have to use our own 08604 as a brake translator from air to our vacuum coaches.
    There is also an outside chance to borrow another rare 08 that's not been out in the circuit.
    Just gauging interest?
