    Ex Rhyl Barnes Atlantic loco 102, John, used to be based at the Evesham Light Railway, but I'm told it has been sold. Does any kind soul know where this loc is now? I have tried many internet searches, but failed to find an answer!

    AFAIK it is stored at its owners private property, though I may have remembered that wrong.

    According the article in April's Railway Bylines it was bought by Jim Shackell of Witney Oxon. Well worth buying a back number just the Rhyl M.R. article.
    Hope this answers your question
    Ray.

    Ah, I was talking to Jim and Helen at our diesel gala on Sunday, but completely forgot to mention it :(. I really enjoyed driving his Lister and giving them a ride behind it in their beautifully restored German coach, however :)
