    Nesta, Michael, King of the Scarlets, the remains of Gertrude and Cegin are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

    Just need Bressingham to put Gwynedd back into working order - then we can reunite the three sisters in steam for the first time in 60 years. :)

    So does anyone know when Winifred will be at Bala ?

    It will be a nice treat for the summer :)

    Yes, agreed, it will be lovely to see it once it's back

    Sad as I am that none of the aforementioned will be in my garage for me to restore and take care of! ! ! ! I think it is fantastic news that they are on the way home and I am very pleased that they will be able to be seen around the UK once again.

    lets hope in time that a Penrhyn reunion can be arranged, there is a really nice collection of loco's to visit now.

    I find the Avonsides and Barclays really nice looking loco's, somewhat ideal for the smaller railways I would think, with weather protection and reasonably sized and I hope that Winifred can be kept as original as possible too.

    It would be nice to see Marchlyn and Ogwen together again too!

    I would like to offer my many congratulations to all those involved in bringing them back, superb news.

    Best wishes to all,

    Rich.

    There's a good selection of photos of Winifred's unloading, taken by Richard Jones, here.
