Well, that new boiler is a good reminder of why :cry: The EBT engine is toiling in the weeds at the back of the place...looking terrible...it is the only surviving 0-6-0 I can think of which represents 1880s and 1890s switch engines (it was built to an obsolete design when new).
Criminy - are you saying that they had a boiler built that could not be used?
