    I remember reading an article about 27's that mentioned rather than remove the Asbestos, it was cocooned and buried! Could anyone shed any more light on this? Many thanks Matt

    I'm going to start a facebook group to unearth it, repatriate it to Birmingham and rebuild it. Who's with me?

    Surely Dunstable would be a better option, what with the wealth of asbestos removal experience in the area and prospect of a short preserved line available in the future?

    There's a rumour that somewhere in the bushes of Hampshire theres a class 27 buried under blackberry bushes in a siding, it's green so faded it matches the weeds.
    Probably easier to dig up and you might not need the PPP equipment to enter it.
