Dierks Lumber & Coal Co. 2-8-2 No. 226

Posted by: Matthew Gardner on Dec 17, 2024 @ 10:12:15
The ES&NA has no plans to restore this engine. There is only one person left at the place from when steam operations were still going, and according to him, the engine needs a whole new boiler to run again. They also have no intention at this point of putting it back together either. They actually use the cab as a shed for some of their garden tools.

The new-build LMS Patriot 4-6-0 No. 5551 "The Unknown Warrior", has been moved inside the main erecting shop at Tyseley Locomotive Works for what will be its final build position for its construction.

The cylinders are due to have new valve liners fitted. And the wheelsets have now been machined ready for pressing onto the axles.
