    Either way, 75014 has been used regularly at Paington. Early last year it went on loan to the GWSR so I suspect the P&D have decided they don't need it until the Summer so why not loan it out?

    Work has paused on the 8F whilst the overhaul of S160, 3278 is completed.

    We have some mechanical work to do on 5197 once 3278 is completed, we will then hopefully get back onto the 8F.
