Kerr Stuart Brazil For Sale

Just heard about a Kerr Stuart Brazil Class loco for sale, identified as 1098/10 'Lena'. Anyone know anymore about it?

4th loco down

 

My understanding is this loco was little more than a badly rusted hulk. It would require a great deal of money and time to restore to any sort of order. Working order would require a ground-up rebuild. I don't know if any work has been done to it sinc it was returned to the UK 2-3 years ago. It is being sold by FMB Engineering, so they would be the people to contact for full details.

 

Do you know how to contact FMB? Google gives dozens of FMB Engineerings!

 

A good starting point is this thread: https://www.national-preservation.com/threads/antigua-kerr-stuarts.171549/

Brian Gent is the gentleman behind FMB Engineering.

Many thanks - BTW, love your book!

 

See FMB's advert in Tractionads: http://www.tractionads.co.uk/html/current.htm

 

Considering they are trying to sell these Kerr Stuarts they have got hold of, they're very poor at advertising them, I don't think anyone has seen a good clear picture of them in the UK yet.

 

I'm very glad you enjoyed the book, Felix. Kind of you to mention it.
