JNR 4-6-4 No. C62-2

Posted by: Yuki Taki on Apr 24, 2024 @ 19:04:52
Please change status to "Display" for the time being. The locomotive reversed off the end of the water track on January 8 2024 with minor damage and is now awaiting repairs to the tender. Though the damage is indeed minor, the Umekouji shop crew have Mikado D51200 returning to the mainline at Yamaguchi, Pacific C571 under heavy overhaul, and their 0-4-0 tank B2010 also down with leaking flues. Due to this heavy workload, the timeline for the repairs to C622 are unclear.

The overhaul on the National Railway Museum’s ex LSWR T9 4-4-0 No. 30120, has been given the go ahead, as both the T3 Locomotive Trust and the Swanage Railway have launched Project 120, as they have reached a new agreement with the National Railway Museum to initially assess the condition of the locomotive, ahead of a commitment to return No. 30120 to steam for further service on the Swanage Railway again. The aim is to have No. 30120 in steam in time for her 130th Birthday in 2029! The T3 Locomotive Trust are initially trying to raise £50,000 to enable the locomotive to be dismantled and assessed. Should they be successful, then later in the year the boiler and tender will be taken to the Flour Mill and the chassis will head to Herston Works for inspection.
