    It is good to see some young members of the team in action - painted sign-writing as well!

    Good work by the team and it is good to see the "classic" equipment being still useful!

    The Quorn team has been busy and a rebuilt and painted Brakevan - B954268, will be in use this coming weekend! Lots of BRUTE action as well.

    Another tanker has arrived...and it is a big one!
    From the QW&W website....
    "4099 (currently showing 87483) is a 100t gross bogie tank wagon, built by R Y Pickering in 1967 for Shell Mex BP. The tank was initially a Class B, but was later converted to Class A. Latter it was owned by VTG who made us aware of it following a review of their stored stock. After a conversation with the Railway’s General Manager, consent was given to bring the tank from Long Marston for three reasons: it provides more capacity for locomotive water at steam galas (once lined); it can operated at 60mph and is air braked so can be used for testing work; and lastly with a vacuum through pipe, it could run in the tank train for photo charters."
