    Thanks, hadn't realised S100 was at Peak as well as S102. Has S100 run in preservation? I remember it being at YDR but thats nearly 50 years ago, probably straight out of NCB service .

    I believe it moved a a few years ago from Chasewater, after Mark Sealey became GM. It'll be ready next year I was told, but that was over 15 years ago! I understand a lot of parts disappeared when the old shed at Chasewater got demolished to make way for the M6 toll road.

    Well if it is finished soon there'll be a scope for a PLA class event with S102 and 1857, currently at WSR. There's also 'Firefly' at Meldon but that seems to have gone off the radar somewhat ....

    Firefly is still progressing quietly I think. Newtons supplied a new inner firebox and girders for it in the last couple of years or so. Like most locos, it will be done when it's done!
