    Email has just gone out from MNLPS that sets out this is not their intention, though the boiler will be given high priority so that Clan Line can use it if necessary. I believe '25's boiler is in pretty good condition.

    Like the vast majority of railways we have now resorted to diesel haulage. How long the locos will remain in the siding is anyone’s guess right now.
