    There's a half-page feature "9F Owner Told To Quit Kirkby Stephen East" - including statements by both the owner and by the Stainmore Rly Co - on page 9 of the latest "Illustrated Monthly Robin Jones".
    Yes, given that facilities are very limited at present and the loco also being unsuitable for operation on the formation at Kirkby Stephen East, 92219 HAS moved to the Wensleydale Railway. Bit of a pity, in my view however, as the Stainmore line would benefit hugely by the presence of a working ex-BR steam loco!

    A bit too much loco for the current Wensleydale, I'd have thought - I wonder how their track would cope with it. Fortunately, though, not something they'll have to worry about for a few years, though !
