Locomotive News - STOP PRESS

No.131 has been fired up as a complete engine for the first time since December 2025.

The locomotive had the boiler lifted into the frames on 1st September, and was in steam as a complete locomotive on 1st October. She has yet to move under her own power, as this was all about static tests.
