    I need your help....

    I need to know if possible any of 26 E Bacup Sheds allocations of locomotives numbers.

    Im in the middle of having some model locomotives repainted and renumbered but need to know if Bacup shed had some LMS Ivatt class 2 Tank engines or Br standard Versions?

    cheers

    Dan
