Nothing really, Little Giant on loan, although that may be going to CCLR, and a 15" gauge coach a glass case on display! |

The two original Milner Hunslet locos are in private hands, one of which (Pendlewitch) is at Station Road Steam undergoing overhaul. Not sure if any other Milner locos are in the NRM. Cheers, Dom Greenop DMR |

Jordan, They have done this before with some of their 7.25" engines. One line that a few have visited is the Weston Park Railway. Thanks Peter |

I believe the Great Cockrow Railway currently has the NRM's Austerity 2-8-0. |
