North Eastern Locomotive Preservation Group

The locomotive returned to Carnforth today.

The locomotive has been withdrawn because of excessive flange wear. One flange is at the minimum. The tyres had already been turned to the miniimum size so will need to be replaced before the locomotive sees further service.

The items below are now available for immediate purchase and all proceeds directly support NELPG in the maintenance and overhaul of its locomotives.
