Posted by: Russell Newman on Feb 21, 2022 @ 13:02:48
BR Standard 2MT 2-6-0 No. 78022 has become the first standard gauge steam locomotive to run successfully on bio-coal as part of a trial for future clean fuel for steam locomotives. On the 14th of February 2022 the locomotive was fired using a batch of Homefire Ecoal. Hauling five carriages, as it would have done with traditional coal, the Standard 2MT hauled its trains up the steeply graded, five mile long, heritage line in West Yorkshire which was very successful.
