No.5 IN STORAGE AT DOUGLAS STATION
No.5 shortly after removal from the old carriage shed prior to its demolition in 1999, the first time the locomotive had seen the light of day for nearly twenty years.
In the carriage shed in 1994 shortly after No.6 Peveril had been removed for cosmetic restoration by the Supporters' Association; No.6 had been stored directly in front of No5.
Remember this happening after it had been stored with Peverel at the back of the carriage shed
ReplyDeleteThat's right, No.6 was removed for cosmetic work by the Association in 1994 but No.5 remained there for another few years.
