    Hi

    I am currently undertaking a cosmetic restoration on the above engine's sister, 172L 'Townsend Hook' (based at Amberley Museum). If anyone knows where William Finlay is or how I can contact the owner(s) this information would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks:hat:

    Townsend Hook and William Finlay are built to 3' 2.25'' gauge. Hopefully TH's cosmetic overhaul should be largely completed by mid-2013.
