    Yes I am an active volunteer
    Ruston & Hornsby number 221625 has a arrived at the Penrhyn headquarters.

    It will carry the number 26 and will return to Ruston green livery before being used for track laying on phase one with 25 confined to duties around the sheds for a while.

    I believe the loco has come from the Statfold Barn Railway, has i saw it there back in june.

    Yes, the Feldbahn 0-8-0 is still nearby and still on private land. Not much progress on it recently as efforts have gone to restoring the buildings at Felin Fawr and rebuilding the railway.
