    30075 at Shillingstone is now in working order , ie passed the steam test and has trundled up and down a hundred feet or so of track.. As there's no public running at the site I assume it will go on hire elsewhere in 2026 to earn its keep.

    Andrew Barclay 2074 Llantarnam Abbey should see its first stint in preservation working at Blaenavon in 2026.

    Andrew Barclay 2201 Victory is two or three months behind Llantarnam from completion at Williton, so should return in 2026 as well.

    I think one of the magazines mentioned 75014 at Dartmouth Steam Railway being withdrawn in 2026.

    As announced for the SVR Spring Gala, 4150 is to appear. Usual caveats.
