Pearl was indeed bought to Romney for a Gala which happened to coincide with the naming of the class 73 at Folkestone. 'Pearl' was exhibited at New Romney on a flat truck and never actually touched Romney metals - although given the state and size of the reads I fear it would never have stayed on the rails. The actual transportation of the loco was undertaken by the RHDRA and the loco stayed with us for about 6 weeks. It is a very simple loco so if someone wanted to see one run then I would suggest they built one from scratch copying thr Brotherhood design. Somewhere I may have some photos of it at Romney but not sure where. |
