The new operator is one Mr. Joe James. Does anyone have any contact details for him - has he been involved with other MR projects? The office at Croxteth Park don't have details for him. The line will apparently reopen at Easter. |

I used to own 'Dennis' that worked at Croteth Park until 1992. Sold on in 1996 to pay towards 'Effie'. Now derelict

That's a shame to hear it's now derelict. Surely some kind hearted person with the money would give it a good home. It's a wonderful engine!

Problem is that the person who owns it, won't sell her back to me. Although at this stage dealing with yet another gauge is probebly not the right thing!

Why do you want to borrow it for Burnley then? Burnley is a long way from Scarborough! But there again, so is Cleethorpes! Haven't seen Mountaineer since she left Saltburn. at the begining of September last. David |
