Well, well. What goes round comes round. Many years ago this loco was going to come to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway after restoration at Brightlingsea. Mind you, I had more hair then and it was not grey.

I was one of the original investors from when 92134 was rescued from Barry. Over the years I have lost touch with the loco and the group. The last time I saw it it was at Sail and Steam in Brightingsea. I am now in Singapore but would like to find out who rescued the rescued loco from Brightlingsea and what the "deal" was plus what the plans are for the future.
