    No I do not currently volunteer
    I think this has been discussed before but time has moved on, and I am a bit confused...
    Are there any surviving Heywood locos or rolling stock (apart from important bits of Muriel now being River Irt, and minor bits of Ella being in Shelagh of Eskdale, if I remember rightly)?
    Now we have lots of replicas, including I think multiples of some of the original locos (I think there's more than one Effie and also Ursula?).
    What is there and where are they now? I think the collection at Perrygrove was expected to move elsewhere?

    I also think that the Ballast Wagons at Ravenglass are Heywoods

    Katie has been rebuilt from the surviving frames and whistle and is now in the museum at Ravenglass along with a wagon.

    Bottom half of Muriel still exists under River Irt. Bits of Ella are in the museum and the wheels under Shelagh of Eskdale.

    A replica if Effie runs at Cleethorpes. A batch of Katie replicas were built but the only completed that i know of is at Eaton Hall. Not to be confused with the original at ravenglass.

    Of the other rolling stock the Saloon, Open coach, bogie and 4w brake vans from Eaton Hall survived. They have either been rebuilt or used as a patterns for replicas and are in the care of James Waterfield. His collection including a replica Ursula and a new Effie has been moved to a private site in Lincolnshire where he is building a short railway for them to run on.

    Various wagons exist both original and replica at several locations. The ex Eaton hall simplex is also still in use at Romney.

    FMB Engineering intended a batch of four Katies, in a project that started in 1991.

    001 is at (or nominally at) a private site in Lincolnshire, complete or near complete, I'm not sure if it has steamed.
    002 was ultimately built as an 0-4-2 and is at the Moors Valley Railway in Ringwood, Dorset.
    003 is KATIE at Eaton Hall.
    004 never got beyond the frame stage and the frames completely disappeared years ago, I don't think it is the one you quote as being finished off in the South of England. But I could be wrong.

    (Numbers 001 to 004 are as quoted to me by one of the members of FMB Engineering; I don't think they are carried.)
