    This is the link I used: https://762club.com/news/news-update

    I wonder if this is an old website?

    Right website, but that’s a link to a specific article from 2022. You can either
    1) delete /news-update from the link you’re using, or
    2) click on the ‘menu’ button in the middle of the page you see, then select ‘News’ from the dropdown menu.
    Either way will get you to the complete news section.

    Thanks, guys. No sooner had I posted the above than I realised what the issue was all sorted now.

    "....We are very close to the point where the boiler order will have to be postponed......"

    What is not clear is whether this is because (a) there is no money available for the boiler or (b) there is some, but just not enough, money available for the boiler, in which case how much is the shortfall?

    Out of curiosity - not being someone accustomed to buying loco boilers :) - what is the current 'ball-park' figure for a new MW boiler please?

    Will they afford two boilers and an overhaul for the Baldwin?
