With its boiler now being used on U Class No. 31806 to keep her running the sole surviving Southern Railway N Class 2-6-0 No. 31874 will have to wait a bit longer for her return to traffic as it will now use the boiler from 31806 which will have its external and internal exam and a work schedule drawn up in the meantime. It is hoped that it will take 6 to 12 months’ work to get No. 31874 into service again.
