    Hi All
    I am pleased to confirm that theleighton buzzard railways new air break tender has been used other the Easter holidays with Sezela. The tender supply's air for loco not fitted with air break pump and does not require a diesel. It is hoped in the future this will allow small locos such as Pixie rishra and chaloner to run on there own or double headed on passenger train.
